Nice video MannyLon.
I have also installed these link pipes on my GT4, but the car shows a CEL after installation.
According to the dealer, the car needs a Software update to get rid of the CEL. Has your dealer installed this software update?

Think there are OBD port resets that work,

Thanks MannyLon
So you had no CEL after installing the link pipes?
Does your dealer have the software to do this OBD reset, or can any dealer do this?

This will only be an issue for non US cars I believe. There are OBD port plugins avaialble that you can use yourself. Something I'll look to do eventually.

Where are you located?
US does NOT have sensors so should not get a CEL.

Hi,
Didn't you already have Kline and BCF on your car? What happened to them?

Cheers,
Harry.

Kline returned as did not work for me. BCF I took off as a precaution to being too loud. May put BCF back on after testing the link pipes in isolation.
