our cel goes off automatically. Once the prob is fixed, it will go off. No need to have anybody turn it off. If it stays on, there is a prob. If disconnecting the b attery worked, and it didnt come back on, it should be ok.

and what you should have done instead of driving a few months to let the car learn the new mods. You should unplug the ECU fuse (or disconnect the battery) for about 5 or 10 minutes, and it will reset. Than hook the battery back up and start the car. Let it idle for about 10 minutes. DO NOT step on the gas in this time, no revving. Just let it idle. Than bring it for a little drive, drive however hard you'd like, and it should be good to go. Thats the easiest/quickest way to get the most response from your mods.
