disconnect your battery for 15-20 mins and then reconnect and see if it's gone.
oh and don't get the spacer. it doesn't do anything except pimp out your engine bay.

tb spacer and sound!?
errr.....
just disconnect your battery, you dont even have to do it for 15-20 mins....a good minute or two will still reset the CEL.
BUTT, most likely is that you forgot to plug a sensor back in.
Re-check your work. make sure all wire harnesses are connected and snug.
if you still have the CEL, take a trip to an auto parts store. they can read the code for you, to help determine your next course of action

My buddy tells me it will give my car a whistle sound. What about thermal gaskets n TB gaskets I belive some where on this site there selling them in a bundle for like a 100 bucks.. any opinions?

my opinion? do not waste your money on them. they're all hype.
i installed it at one point and then took it off a few days later. felt like i lost power.
i believe they are a waste of money. if you take a look at the shape of the intake manifold, it should be obvious that a little mixing in the air after the throttle body will have no effect on anything. also think about the length of the spacer...it also adds nothing when you compare the length of the intake between the port and the throttle. the only thing they are good at is parting people from hard-earned money.
some people like them, some people don't. i'm one of the dont's.
