RV6 V2 Precat Delete Interest
#241
I've got mine installed about a week ago on a 08 MT Type S...I've got the Check Engine Light illuminated...Anyone knows how to fix this problem? is there a specific way of installing the O2 sensors? Great GAINS...Final Dyno Results on a DynoJet.

If the cel comes back, get the diagnostic code. Post again with the diagnostic code after doing a rest. We can advise more from there.
The angled defoulers supplied with the PCD are nearly perfect or possibly absolutely perfect. There have been just a very, very few people on Acuarazine that have had CEL with the Version 2 PCD.
In my opinion, these very few cases *might* had been from O2 sensors being damaged during the PCD install, and not the fault of the defoulers. The sensors are delicate and easily damaged. Hitting on the wrench to break loose the stubborn sensor will send damaging vibrations to the sensor. Get oil (anti-seize?) on the business-end of the sensor and the sensor is compromised. Drop the loose sensor hard on the concrete floor and it is compromised.

+1 ^^ o2 sensors are very sensitive and can easily be damaged if not careful with them....On a side note it seems more probable that you have an actual issue with either sensor or something else, but ECU reset will most likely not solve your issue. When I installed my PCD's I purposely did not reset ECU to see if I would throw a CEL and to this day I still have not gotten a CEL and its been almost 1yr since my install.
But like Inaccurate says pull the code and we can further help you out and get this CEL issue resolved, which IMO is something caused by mechanic error while installing your PCD's
