Help! Check engine and VSc
So I just recently got my joez exhaust and decided to get it intalled today along with the intake. Took it to reputable shop and got the work done. After all said and done driving back was music to my ears. Got home and and decided to step out again and as I am driving the check engine came up along with the Vsc light. Decided to turn back and take the baby home. Shop is closed until Monday. What do u guys think it could be?

Nope didn't fill up Teo... I checked the MAF Sensor it looks like the plastic piece of that is lifted but the wires inside still tacked.. I will go back to the shop possibly see for leaks on the exhaust/unplug from battery check MAF and o2 sensors as well. Hopefully it all goes well.. :-/

Hmm....
It could be an exhaust leak by the x-pipe / manifold connections due to improper installation.
OR
It could be a problem they created with the O2 sensor installation.. Either damage sensor or twisted or damaged wiring...
As mentioned, these sensors are indeed very sensitive.
Can't really be anything else.. You could also try resetting the ECU, but my guess is that the CEL will come back until the problem is fixed.
Also, it doesn't hurt to check the MAF Plug to see if its properly installed.
