Header Install

Header Install Well I've about completed my header install. Went really good for the most part. Having difficulties with the y-pipe (AHR) fitting into the catback (gmmg). It seems as the catback pipe has a lip around the inside of the pipe that probably should be grinded off, to allow clearance..?
I started it up for idle and a few revs with just headers and y (with cats) on. Sounds mean as hell.
A couple questions.
1. Quite a bit of smoke coming out of the engine bay. Don't think there are any exhaust leaks, probably some oil coating burning off the headers?
2. I deleted EGR and AIR. No CEL, but a SES light. Does that seem right?
Questions, comments, concerns are appreciated

If your headers are coated then some of that burns off when you heat it up for the first time. You should just throw a SES light once it figures out everything isn't there (rear o2's and emission parts) Took mine a little bit to kick on.
