Default o/r pipe and no CEL came on?

I was just wondering as of why my CEL hasn't come on yet with my o/r H pipe and L/T headers......anyone know any reason why? I was almost possitive it would come on..

Thanks.

no clue. I dont think CeeKay came on either. Thats good news tho if it wonlt, saves me from having to get the MIL eliminator. Have you drove around with the new set up tho?

if it hasn't come on yet it will come on eventually if you do not have mils etc.

Give it some time it WILL come on. May take 3 miles or 3000 miles but eventually it will....

Yeah, my check engine light didn't come on until around 75 miles. It depends on how you are driving, I guess.

Hey, if I were you I would go and buy some mil eliminators, I just put mine on last night and the car is running noticeably better.
