cel p0171 system lean
I've had this going on for awhile not sure how to fix it I've tried a lot of stuff I got a new maf sensore new 02 sensores I have a k&n cold air intake obx 4-1 headers and a rrm piggyback not sure if any of those are causing it or if I can change my settings in my piggyback to fix it anything helps thanks
I cant remember specifically what that code is but it looks really familiar. If I recall correctly that has to do with your headers.
In more detail the headers are letting more air through your system faster and the second o2 thinks there is a problem.
Thats why you have to put the o2 extender on the 2nd cat.
So...o2 extender. RRM sells them or go to advance auto parts

I have a Ralliart, but I had the code for a while also. But it was after I cleaned my intake manifold. Somehow I had a leak on my intake mani, (the bolts somehow loosened
) so I would check there. I would just check everything to do with air to be sure. I spent 2 hours with my car to find my leak. Good luck to you!

Scratch what I said about the header thing. I remember that code all too well now. It used to plague me during the summer but go away during the winter. After my turbo build I just got a cel and guess which one it is? That same one. I'm chalking it up to a vacuum leak.
But what led you to believe its a timing issue?

Well I think the guy before me had it in florida and I live in colorado so I was thinkin something might of happened with the altitude change and I did a vacuum test and it was reading late ingition timing
Its like between 18 and 20 and my tester says when ItS on 15 its a ignition timing problem and if it was at like 7 it would vacuum leak but I haven't gotten that so I'm just not getting y its only on 15 when my AC is on and normal when my AC is off
