Default Check Engine light... ???? CAI/Corsa

My check engine light came on yesterday, I scanned and it came back with a code for running lean. All I have is a Halltech and a Corsa Catback. I looked for leaks to see if I was getting any un-read air in but could,'t find any. Any ideas?

Thanks, Guys.

As long as there aren't any air leaks after the MAF sensor, you should be fine. I don't see why you're getting a lean cold with just a CAI and a catback. Did you do anything else to the car as far as mods? Did it happen right after you installed the CAI & catback.

When you intalled the CAI, what did you remove? Try going back to what you did. you might have left something lose.

It didn't come on until the other day (about a week after I re-did the install), I don't see any where it could be leaking from. I don't see how I could be throwing a code from just a CAI and a catback either, I'm gonna remove/replace the CAI tomorrow, maybe I'll stumble across something.

Ya try installing the stock airbox and clearing the code. If it comes back then it's something else. If it doesn't come back after a week then replace it with the CAI and see if it comes back.
