Question H-Pipe = Check engine light?

Is anyone running an off road H or X pipe experiencing their check engine light coming on?

If your check engine light comes on, will disconnecting the battery turn it off (assuming you fixed the problem) or does it have to be taken to a dealer?

Question

What is that MIL eliminator? Does it go to the O2 sensor.

MIL is Malfunction Indicator Light. The MIL eliminator connects to the O2 sensors on the pipe and fools the computer. Check www.need-4-speed.com 727.539.7722 ask for Tony. Tell him Ken Barr sent you. They go for $59 a pair.
