Try the twenty-stomp-reset.
Key to on, but not started,
tap brakes enough to light brakelights twenty times, quickly,
watch the oil pressure gauge, should go to 'normal' then back to 'o'.
This resets the keep-alive memory.

I am new to this Forum and a new RX8 owner, but visited the dealer and talked with another 8 owner, and he said the K&V air intake caused contamination of the sensor after the filter with oil on the sensor surface, not saying this is your issue just passing info...Gr8t8

not sure what you are asking now..
the cel will not go away... until you put a cat back on.. or clear the 420 code. and if you clear it, it will come back..
as to the dsc and traction control lights they should be off..
the exhaust dia is 2.5 to 3.0 depending on the exhaust.. feeling a difference between the two is not likely..

How many threads are you gonna make on this subject? I know this is about the K&N, but you got two others on the exhaust already.
Next time........do a little reading up on things before just throwing them on the car.

The car will shut off in 2 seconds if the MAF is not plug in. Cuz the ECU has no idea what the airflow rate is.
