Default Just finish hearder install

I started to work at 11 am (sat) and it was easy but very timely..I was changing the plugs to TR6 and found out that rear driver side plug was very loose, and around it was all black **** on the head. I think that was why the car was knocking and ranned like **** on the dyno 308/317qt with mods on sig..The headers went in easy with out cutting anything, only the edge of the driver side header (was hitting the sensor). We stoped at 7 pm and started at 8am til 11am. a total of about 13 hrs. With the heat of about 105* and taking breaks every 30 mins. It sounds badass and I it made a big different (probable because of the plug)but he tires spin like crazy. And oh yeah it was some Pacasetters and ORY. I got the plain headers and went and got some cans of header paint ceramic coating and painted my self. they got all sracth when we put the headers on.The "check engine" went on after 7 miles.

Well they probably took a good beating from being moved around. Plus they were oxygenated.
I think that you meant to say that the Service Engine Soon light came on.
There is a Check Gauges light as well. You have O2 simms?
