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?

did u fill up on the way home? check the gas cap if its tighten, o2 sensors, check maf sensor as well.

it could also be an exhaust leak at one of the exhaust gasket sites...

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.. :-/

Get the codes checked so you can narrow it down. My bet is the 02 sensor is kicking it on. These are real touchy and it they sense too much resistance they will light up the check engine. Make sure the wires are not wrapped or twisted.

Before you unplug the battery(I pull the fuse if it were me) I'd get the codes scanned to see what they read.

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.

Maybe is the O2 sensor is bad , just double check on that, ? Not carefully take out the o2 sensors and reinstalling back could damaged it.
