Throwin' Codes

Throwin' Codes
Sup y'all fellow box lovers.
I installed an AEM CAI, Strup 4-1 header, Weapon R S-Pipe and Strup Exhaust a couple weeks ago and the car just keeps throwing codes. I have cleaned the MAF multiple times, yanked the neg off the battery, yanked the fuses and it is still throwing a code. The car barely has 5k miles on it. Anyone else encounter this? Also I did install the CEL eliminator on the header but not one on the s-pipe. Not sure if this would be needed on the s-pipe but I figured I would throw it out there. Also my little bro is a toyota tech in japan but has no thoughts as to what else it could be.

CEL eliminator on the header? if I am not mistaken the pre cat sensor is an A/F ratio sensor not an 02 sensor, If I got it correct the CEL eliminator is meant to trick the ECU that emissions on the car is running normal...before you go to crazy I say relocate the CEL eliminator to the S-pipe and take it from there....I dont ever recall needing two eliminators and none the less one on the header...hope this helps and good luck!

If you installed the CEL Eliminator on the header instead of the 'S'-pipe, then you installed it in the wrong place. No wonder you're getting codes! Please move the Eliminator from the header to the 'S'-pipe and then apprise us of your situation !

Not a problem dude! Just let us know how things work out with the CEL Eliminator on the 'S'-pipe, rather than the header. I'll be really surprised if you continue to have a problem. This stuff takes a little research (certainly true in my case) but unfortunately, many don't recognize that ! It's important to as far as possible absolutely know what your engine mods will result in, and thereby minimize the influence of guessing or supposing !

Agency Power provides a highly reliable light-weight crank pulley. You just have to decide if that's what you want or perhaos something a little different !

Yeah the NST pulley is great i had one on the xD and it made the car feel sooooo much better the revs matched up better when shifting and downshifting didnt feel so harsh it made everything feel really smooth great product and the weight reduction from the stock pulley to theres is insane

Actually, in terms of rev behavior, you'll find the other major brand OE sized lightweight pulleys also meet that description. The difference I had in mind when responding to your Agency Power question was more of pulley diameter (stock or underdrive), but I personally went with the AP.

The lights came back on. I had been driving for about 4 hours in 95 degree heat and they came back on. If I remove the neg for a while it will go away but it still pops back on. I am starting to wonder if part of it is actually my traction control. The car will just break loose whenever now. Not that I am complaining but I guess I should get it fixed.

If the CEL lamp is on, then get it scanned (Autozone perhaps). If you're referring to the TRAC lamp alone, then what are you actually doing when it "breaks free" and what exact behavior are you referring to? For example, TRAC doesn't prevent you from squealing or slipping front tires on loose or hard surface when pulling out from a stop.
