Check Engine Light..

So I was sitting at a red light today and my check engine light decided to come on. About a week ago I installed long tube headers and deleted the cats with straight pipes. I was just wondering if that could be the problem or if it could be something more serious.
Thanks,
Elliot

The answer is probably at your fingertips...what is the code(s) on the DIC? ...more than likely it is the deletion of the cats and O2 sensors if you didn't reprogram/tune.

It said 10-PCM 2 codes but I accidentally reset it. What should I do now?

So you think that it was because of the cat delete pipes?
