I need some help, going to the mechanics tomorrow but, want some answers as I'm stumped. my Check engine light came on Saturday night, It say increased emissions. I installed a spring booster 3 weeks ago. can these two be somehow related.??

Appreciate any help/

Thanks

Unlikely w/ the SB but emissions seems to more related to the AFE CAE if any.

Actually there is a direct correlation between the check engine light and SB for some. Remove the SB and the check engine light should go away. Ask NeRwEEzy how he got the issue resolved. It happened to him.

i had the "service engine soon" light coming on once in a while. i used to just take it off for a while and then put it back on. some told me that maybe the pins were a little bent though. i put it on a LCI 550 though and no problems whatsoever, no lights came on. but for some odd reason it made my car sound like it had a turbo when i had it on mine
