Has anyone heard if the problem w/ the CEL has been corrected? Or if there is an O2 simulator that would work for the tC? Thanks.

 

Haven't heard of anything yet and I am still waiting to see what they do with that as well. DC is a trusted name so I am sure they will do something to fix the problem. :D

 

it deletes the precat right? pretty sure the only way to fix that would be an O2 sim. but as always i'm no expert so correct me if i'm wrong

 

Installing an O2 simulator or O2 Cheater is the only way to get the check engine light to turn off. There is no way to avoid the CEL otherwise.... When you remove a cat that has sensors before and after it, the computer will know something is wrong, and will thow the light. Race header = Check Engine Light...

CEL light comes on

 

or a way to get it to pass emissions without having to remove it? lol.

 

go to a shady shop and buy a sticker

 

I'd go and check www.clubsciontc.com

Check this tread out... http://www.clubsciontc.com/modules.p...ewtopic&t=2139

You'll find alot of useful information, if not a temporary solution until theres something to remedy the problem.

 

i just put my header in today. but i think i here a rattle in mine... i dont know what it is. i think i just have to re tighten everything. anyways my check engine light hasnt come on yet i was wondering why i see that everyone else is gettin the CEL on...

 

I was looking at the DC Header on mcgeorgeparts.com recently and it said to call for a a price. When I called them they told me that there was a problem with the CEL coming on and that DC was redesigning it to eliminate this problem and releasing the new version soon.

 

only thing they will probably do is add the cat in there which will raise the price up. unless they put o2 or some other device to eliminate the error.(price stilll goes up)


but i doubt they will redesign the header. it was meant for offroad use only. and the CEL is expected to be there anyway.

and if they did it would probably be a new type of header.
