Default Header package install. Need advice.

Installed LT's, free flow cats, x-pipe on my 04 MN6 three weeks ago. Nice power and sound gains. Now 350 miles later I get a check engine light. Checked codes and only active one, I think, is P0430 H C which is "TWC System Low Efficiency Bank 2". Anyone know what that means and would it trigger the light?
What's the best action, other than taking it to a dealer? Can a tuner eliminate this condition and will it prevent it from happening again?
All experienced advice will be greatly appreciated.

I would have a Tuner remove the code or buy MIL eliminators for the rear. If thats the 02's in question. A good Tuner can do alot for you.
