The header is awesome. Can not go wrong with strup at all. I have had mine for months now. Would not use any other one but Strup.

whitebreadbox · 01-05-2008, 12:52 PM

does this throw the CEL? i want one, but don't want to run a CEL eliminator or have the CEL come on. any info would be great! thanks

Lvbitwiz · 01-05-2008, 04:20 PM

No CEL, runs great

zobispo · 01-05-2008, 06:57 PM

whats the dyno horsepower added.

Lvbitwiz · 01-05-2008, 08:05 PM

I'll let you know when I get on a dyno

on a side note, the CEL does come on, it just took a few highway miles

reel66 · 01-05-2008, 10:25 PM

DONT MEAN TO SOUND LIKE A DUMMY

BUT WHAT IS "CEL"???

WhiteNoise · 01-05-2008, 10:55 PM

CEL=check engine light.

I did check my engine and sure enough, it was still there. But to answer your first question, the computer is seeing a greater flow that what should be there, compared to the other sensor it's confuseled. As for the second question you asked I'm not quite usre what you're asking (can I power the power gain?

)

whitebreadbox · 01-06-2008, 08:27 AM

so i guess the big question here would be, has someone (a company) figured out a way to hack into the computer to remap the air/fuel/timing and offer a chip or obd piggyback to get the most gains out of the engine and/or a header and anything else bolt on??? i don't think i'd be a fan of running a CEL eliminator to run a header. i'd always be worried (i have OCD when it comes to my cars!!!)

i know i've read that the vehic computer is almost impossible to do anything with, but there are way too many computer geniuses out there for me to believe it can't be done safely!!! IMO

SRY ABOUT THAT, WHAT I WAS ASKING WAS TO THOSE WHO HAVE THESE HEADERS HOW BIG OF A POWER GAIN DO YOU GET WITH THEM?

**NoLimitzInd** · 01-06-2008, 05:28 PM

I noticed some from doing my header on mine. I cant say exactly how much, but it was noticeable.

As for the CEL. I have used the eliminator on my xB for almost 4 months now. Since I have had my header for that long. I used one on my tC for almost a year and a half with no issues.

**scvscions** · 01-06-2008, 10:16 PM

I want to see what they do to the NEW 3 way cat in the middle of the car.

ReAnImAtIoN · 01-12-2008, 02:43 AM

beautiful...im gona order mine polished

sybertiger111 · 01-12-2008, 08:33 PM

ok heres my two question, 1) will the CEL canceler still allow for real engin issues to come up, or is it like disable it for good? 2) is the header the same one used on the TC, cause they look really really simaler if not the same, and it bolts in right, no modding needed??
