You realize there is no way anyone can possibly diagnose your problem without your providing the code, as it could be one of many, many, many things.

I was hoping other people that had ported their housing or installed a lid were having their SES light come on and they could give me a few possible options..... I'll have a code in a few days, I'm just impatient... If you don't have any thoughts, then don't waste your time posting a reply!

Maybe you killed the sensor on the lid?

Same thing happed to me when I installed the SLP MAF. It turned out one of the wires to the sensor was loose. After getting the wire in tight, here's how to reset the light...

Turn your ignition on but don't start the car.
Under the hood, pull the PCM IGN and PCM BAT fuses
Wait 30 seconds or so.
Turn the ignition off and replace the fuses.

If the light comes back on, you still have something loose or something really is wrong.

Have you considered your getting lean codes since you ported your MAFH? That's all I can think of with your mods. Also, you may want to make sure you put everything back together after the lid install (IAT, etc...).

Good luck,

Dan
