Pootiestang said:Anyone know because mine has been on, and I just haven't gotten around to fixing the MILs. I had the codes checked just to be sure and it is the o2 sensor but I was just wondering if it would effect performance at all.
san~man said:No, as long as it's the rear O2 sensors.

DeadLurker said:I believe it does affect performance. When I had my 00GT dynoed one time it dynoed less hp because the SES light was on. If I remember correctly it was someting about not letting the car rev past a certain rpm(my 00gt was an auto).

Read carefully here: Your car will run exactly the same with or without MIL Eliminators. Their only function is to prevent the P0420 and P0430 low-cat efficiency DTC's from being triggered when you remove your cats.
Again, rear o2 sensors play no role in engine control. No change in A/F ratio, no pulled timing, nothing.
I feel I have a little bit of experience on this subject since we've troubleshooted DTC's for the past 4 years for this very topic...
Keep the rubber side down, fellas.

san~man said:Here's something Dan posted a while back, and I believe he's an expert on this subject:
san~man said:Like I said before, as long as it's due to the REAR O2 sensors, there's no effect from having the CEL on.
Now, if it's due to another code, it can/possibly will.
DarkHorse164 said:Just disconnect the battery for about 10 minutes and the SES light will go out. I deal with this same problem on occassion due to my MIL's. The only down side is you'll have to reprogram your radio presets and clock.
san~man said:Disconn of the battery is a temporary fix. If the CEL is on for a reason, it will come back.
Pootiestang said:What kinda prices would it cost for a reflash by T&J? IM local so that would be easy and I dont plan on modding anymore.
DeadLurker said:you coming to the dyno day saturday?
Pootiestang said:I had no idea about it, I might be able to drive in depending on what the deal is. Where can I get more information on prices and stuff.
DeadLurker said:I'm not sure if there is any more room in regards to actually dynoing your car and/or getting it tuned but your more than welcome to come by and check it out.
Pootiestang said:DOH! Figures, where can I go to stay updated with stuff going on in Atlanta?
Pootiestang said:I signed up for that forum but am still awaiting the e-mail to start posting! But it looks like I wont make it this weekend anyways.
