I HATE THOSE FREAKING HEADERS!!!

they done nothing but bring pain to me, This CEL wont go away, I changed gasket, reprogram the O2 sensors, checked the headers, and the CEL still won't go....now the car is just a pain, I should have stayed stock!!

and i am starting to give up on it, if there any real solution other than a tune.

I just feel like crashing my car into JBA company!

time for a tune, my headers have no problems at all.

why are you not tuning? It gets rid of the CEL and gives you more for what you bought... Unlocks the true beast your car has become O_o

Majority of the people who have headers on their Camaros (5th Gen) had their cars tuned. Get 'er tuned and continue loving the Camaro

Did anyone suggest getting a tune?

Get a tune and don't kill yourself.

I read a rumor over on MustangChallengerBimmertalkforum.com that if you TUNE a Camaro with headers they really wake up...you may want to try that...just sayin'.
