I am running with an apexi power fc, and have removed my ACV, split air pipe, and acv pipe. I was wondering if my car is going to throw the check engine light because of the sensors not being there? I know it would with the stock ecu but what about with the power fc?

 

Nope, it won't with the PFC.

 

I don't know about others, but I would not purchase ANY 3rd gen that did not have all of it's systems intact.

 

The only time the PFC lights up the CEL is for knock greater than 100 or whatever level you have preset.

 

Wouldn't that effectively mean you just lost your engine?

Also, I thought I read somewhere on the forum that the PFC's CEL isn't THE CEL, it's the Exhaust Overheat light in the center console...is that true? (Thank God I haven't seen either come on )

 

What? Ok. I'm not trying to sell my car here. I'm just blocking off some useless emissions equipment that I don't need anymore. (I just removed my airpump and cat.)

 

FDNEWBIE you are correct sir. It will be the exhaust overheat light

 

Sorry, the forum is so rife with misspelled words, and I recently read another thread where the poster was asking about selling his car.

I thought you were asking if your car would sell. Big error on my part. I assumed something that wasn't and I didn't read in full.

 

Its ok .


I just have to wait for the blockoff plates to come in the mail now. Then my car will run again

 

thanx for the clarification

is it the same codes on the cluster (TEN and GND)

will it blink the same???

mike

 

The PFC will throw codes??
