There Is a way to reset it but it will come back on after a few miles. Depending what it is. Fixing it would be a permant fix if not ur going to be reseting it every hour, everyday.

A CEL will only go out if you reset it with an OBD II tool, or if the fault goes away on its own and isn't detected for several cold to hot start and stop cycles.

I think Autozone can check it for you for free since you probably don't want to go to the dealer with your new mods.

um..25 pounds of boost..doubt it..theres no way. and just by "fixing" a cel, and increasing boost will not make the car run fast. you need to adjust air/fuel and how would you know your at 260 hp?! i didnt know advanced auto parts have a dyno

PCMscan - reads the CEL code and clears it.
