Default x-pipe set off service engine light

So the x-pipe and flowmasters sound pretty good.. not the exact sound i was looking for but much louder and raspy than before. but now my service engine light came on. how do i fix that? just get some o2 elimanators or is there any other way? its going to bother me pretty badly until i get it fixed

get a power programmer to turn it off but it will come back on every 200 miles or so just turn it off again with a handheld. i just ended up gettin hi flow cats along with my mac offroad x and flows it was on the raspy side but that sound was smoother just not as loud the off th line jump/pull returned and the check engine light went away

or just get mil eliminators installed i think they run like 60 bucks or smthn like that if they still sell them. check americanmuscle. dont ask me how they work i heard some ppl say they work and some say they dont. i just went with hi flow cats instead to get rid of the rasp and maybe factor of they may or may not work like th mils.

simple install, buy them put them in and be done with it. Had them on my car for about a year. no problems. I still get CEL if something happens, but not for O2 sensor reasons.
