Installed SLP headers and loud mouth and now Check Engine light is on
The check engine light came on a few days after the slp headers and loudmouth was installed. I called some places and I couldnt find any o2 simulators. What am I supposed to do to shut the light off?

Mine did the same thing, take it to the dealership they will reset it for you.
Will that disable the rear o2's though? I'm thinking that because there is high flow cat's on the car, thats whats tripping the light and just resetting the light will only be temporary, as it will only come on again.
not sure about the o2 sensors, I took mine in and it turned out to be an error. You have nothing to loose by trying the dealership first.... if it comes back they might know how to handle it.
If you pick out and install a CAI, you should be well set to get your motor dyno'ed to take advantage of all the new power. I picked up 24 rwhp just from my dyno session, plus they disabled the rear O2 sensors, eliminating the CEL.
I have SLP long tubes w/out the catbacks. No check eng. lite for me. Worst case is you may need to retune. Aint it great? You can tune for more power and should be able to keep the o2 sensor to boot. Thats why they gave you the extenders.
