Check your MAF, plug all the sensors in, check your filter.

Regarding headers and CEL, I've had mine for over 2000mi with a test pipe and no CEL.

It could either be a fueling problem like everyone mentioned, or it could be an air leak. Are you sure there aren't any open spots along the intake? Even a pin-sized hole can create problems.

Air leaks usually cause lots of problems at idle and slow speeds, when you get up to speed and the carm gets warmed up, the problem lessens.

are you sure that all of the clamps and stuff on your intake are secure and tight? all hoses are hooked up etc.
if you could find someone with an obd2 reader and hook it up to your car it and give us the trouble codes it would help a LOT im sure. hey, at least you can START your car. tongue.gif :angry:

Got it fixed yesterday. The first O2 sensor was bad. So they replaced it for me and did a full check on the whole car. Now i just gotta get all my stuff back on.
