I added the Borla X pipe and ATAK exhaust and after 150 miles my CEL came on. I've used Borla many times on other cars, Camaro and Challenger, and have never had this happen. Also, I can't swear the exhaust adds made the light come on. I take the car in Wednesday to get the light checked out.
My question is, does this light stay on until the service tech turns it off? I had a 2500HD diesel and the light would come on but go off every so often (service department never could get it figured out.)

I would contact Borla and ask them. Also, if you're going to mod the car, I would invest in a code reader/scanner. Actron and OTC are popular brands. Available on Amazon starting around $50.

Very easy. Just plugs into the OBD port. Codes maybe available here.

Subscribed.

I have Afe CAI, Corsa double helix, and Borla Atak dual mode installed. Have about 50 miles since Borla Atak installed.
