im going to buy a trans am in a few days up north in hackettstown, and the guys says ever since the new exhaust system was put it on its been pulling a check engine light, i want to check that with the computer, now the question is, does anyone have one i can borrow for the day, and throw some cash your way? let me know by weds., thanks
not to hijack but how does exhaust get you a check engine light? it doesnt have any sensors in it. :bs:
as for reading a code, drive to nearest autozone if no one can help.

why not just flash the codes and see what its throwing( u only need a paper clip to get the codes to flash).chances are if its an aftermarket ex its an o2 code

1 o2 in each manifold, 1 precat o2, 1 postcat o2

your car has 4 o2 sensors in the exhaust from the factory...1 in front and behind each cat

when talking about "exhaust" i mean a cat-back exhaust. lets say i buy a mangaflow cat-back and bolt it on to my car. no o2 are on the cut back itself (stuff that comes in the box) ... i know my car has 4 o2s i had to replace all of them...

post cat o2's are, technically, in the catback, and they are what peopel get o2 sims or code deletions for buddy. Actually you got a single cat or dual cat LT1? if you have a single then you have the exact same setup as i do, routing wise, and it's in the s-pipe. You kwnow hat that is right n00bula?

i got a dual cat. ok when you bought your catback and took the old one off did you take out any o2s? NO, i rest my case.
As far as calling "headers and y pipe" an "exhaust" (i know it techinically is) try calling ttp and asking them how much it would be to install an "exhaust" (150 bucks). then ill show up with my long tubes and y-pipe and ill tell them that they quoted me 150 on the phone and lets see if they will do it :rofl: actual quote is 550. so ill stick to calling things by name.
