Long tubes.

Hey man, no matter what long tube header you get you will have the check engine light come on at some point. If you don't want to tune it return the headers. That being said, I have full bolt ons and other things and I tuned it and the car is so much better. If the warranty means that much to you stay stock. I can tell you Imo you won't regret a tune.

Longtube will always give u check engine light for the reason you stated...no reason to go to the dealer to figure that out a 2 minute search on Camaro5 would've showed you lol. I just had warranty work done on my Camaro at the dealer like a month ago and I had headers with a dyno tune. No problems at all they finished it same day too.

Either tune it, live with it, or return it back to stock. Next time do some searching on the internet/camaro5 and it will save you some trouble.

FWIW A tune and headers does not necessarily void your warranty. UNLESS the cause of the failure can be attributed to the modification. Point is, there are plenty of people, including myself, who have voided their warranty in more ways than one, and still have had warranty work done.

Whoever told you that you won't get a check engine light with long tubes shouldn't be giving performance advice, just saying....

Put long tubes on my car before I got it tuned, and sure enough a light came on. Computer needs tuned.

I'm sorry I can't help myself, LOL
I can understand the confusion, He told the guy he had a 2014 Maro, of course the light would not come on, LOL

If he would have told him he had a 2014 CAMARO, Guy would have said it would throw a light...

JRE is a sponsor and does remote tunes. Also, you may be within driving distance to Slowhawk Performance although I don't think they are a sponsor...

I would be happy to, I do remote custom tunes via the SCT X4 over email so we can tune your car right in your driveway and awake the beast within.

Email me at tedj@jannettyracing.com

Thank you

Ted.
