Make sure you use 2 18mm antifoulers, and install both after drilling on the s pipe not header!If you get a CEL , restart the process disconnect battery for 15 min not 30 reconnect and let it idle for 10 no reving, if the CEL pops just drive after the 15 min normally. You have to let the ECU adjust may take 60 -100 miles and the cel should go away. If it does not take it to autozone to get a OBD code, might be a defective o2 sensor. Best of luck man.

That is weird if you are sure your O2 sensor and relay are fine and working properly, and it is on the s pipe then you will need a SIM. Try the Alphawerk SIM it is the cheapest, if that does not do it get the ZPI unit.
