CEL months after TBE install... help?

i installed a turbo XS TBE exhaust with cat about 4 or 5 months ago. I've driven well over 5000 miles and had no problems. Today my CEL came on and I dont know why. I've read that people don't generally have problems with the CEL and this exhaust. I also checked the gas cap but it seemed fine and i'm 3/4 through the tank so its not like i just filled up.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

go to a local shop or someone that got a obd2 scanner to find out the cel code(s) you have first.... find out what the code is and then fix the problem...

Cool beans, I work all around.. lately in monroe, sherman, darien and greenwich. Let me know if you ever need any install help or swap help etc etc.

I know our cars pretty much inside and out.. I've taken my MY02 WRX completely apart.. from minor things like interior and top end of the motor and camshaft swaps.. to a complete swap, drivetrain setup, axles, you name it.
