no guys the CEL was not related the HKS RS kit at all. The guy at autozone just didn't know what the code was. The code happened because water got into the o2 sensor circuitry and blew out the heating unit. Basically I blew out my o2 sensor.

the RS kit sounds badass, and I still recommend it for the money

actually yes, there is an update.

lol.. it WAS in fact my clutch.

replaced it with the clutchmasters stage 3 clutch, everything is fine again.. aside from the stumbling idle.. but thats's actually been better with the cold.

the HKS RS kit is good i think.

just a little expensive.

ive just had my hks kit and hks back installed a week ago.. about two days later my cel went on.. the next day it went off.. then the next day it came back on and has been on since.. im guessing the stock ecu is reading too much air? is this something to get rid of it or is it natural with the setup i got going

pull the code at autozone or with a friends OBD2 reader. then just look it up online, you will know what the code is. It is most likely not due to the intake or cat back.

So the Hks rs kit leans out the car from 4000 to redline? I am just curious because I have this kit on my car.

I have a Turbo XS H34 bypass valve and I am recirculating it with no problems at all. Works great too and still is pretty loud. Sounds great.
