You should not have to remove the battery wire to re set the ecu/pcm. Get in your car and turn the key to on. Pump the brake peddle as fast as you can till you see the oil gauge move up then down. Thats it.
As for the premix come to the next meet. I keep some in my turnk. I use a small ammount every fill up.
If you come to the next meet, I can remove your cell. Dont mean your going to pass smog lol but hey. Mine comes and goes so meh what ever.
You should not have to buy a new 02 bung unless your trying to fool the ecu/pcm but that wont work. Use the stock one.
About them tracktion controll lights and what not, try this;
Turn your car on. Move the sterring wheel all the way to the left then all the way to the right. Then back to center.
See if that get rid of them.
As for your idle, Only thing I can think of the the 02 sencer is not the stock one so its messing with something. IDK but thats all I can come up with for now till I see your 8 in person.

Jacky heres another method to reset since everyone is throwing methods out there.
Just pull the ROOM fuse out and put it back in. This should reset the ECU, so I have read.
So I installed my Mazsport DR midepipe (broke all the stock bolts right off, cheap pieces of ****) and it is everything PeeTom said it would be, a nice deep tone and more high end (not overbearing or loud) and sounds great with my stock exhaust. It sounds almost stock in the cabin but deep on the outside. Now to find a nice RacingBeat Catback or Tanabe Medallion like PeeTom had for sale and the sound will be complete. Thanks again Phil for the detonation advice.
Also, I found Armin! He helped me with the install, Thanks again Armin!

^^^Dude you should've called me, I didn't think you needed help since you made it sound easy when I called you, I would've helped you out, or broke it trying.
Your poor 80 yr old dad...in the cold even.
I choked on my beer when I reading this. That's messed up but it was still funny. He vows to return...Still funny.

Oh I want to hear it! when when when?
Whenever you want to get together is fine, maybe dinner tomorrow. I have to check my wallet first, aka. the wife, aka. the ball and chain, aka. the slave driver, ... I'm glad she doesn't read the forums.

jacky888, If your exhaust is off set, check the exhaust hangers. There are a few holes where you hook up the cat back right next to the tips behind the exhaust plastic shrouds. Make shure they are both in the same holes. One might be in the up hole one might be back hole and thats might be why the cat back is off center and one tip is on the plastic shroud.
Let me know,

hey guys any one know the problem of this, I installed my agp exhaust and the cel showed after a day and I went to a sport car store to pick up a o2 bung and they installed the bung for me and the cel went off again, and I decided to disc the battery so that I could turn the CEL off. When I reconnected the dsc was flashing like a strobe light and the trac light was off too so i reset the pcmand then now i cant turn on the dsc/trac when i turn it off and the idle is very rough(right after i gotgas and started the car the idle bounced 100-200rpm lower sat at 500 and it shut off once
anyone have ideas
to make the dsc work and fix the idle prob"?

That 02 bung install sounds culprit, how was it running before the 02 bung install? Doesn't the AGP exhaust come with a bung? I got this from the Fluid Motorsports thread...Isn't this the 02 bung?

Just recently my tsc/dsc went off flashing because it knew I had a blow out (I had ignored the tpms because of how many times it cried wolf in the past and it was just a little low) and was telling me to slow down by bogging down my car really badly. This could be an indication that something is very wrong with your car. I can see if you have any codes other than the cat CEL. Let me know.

How about the Map???? Did you find the correct program???
That is a bung. When removing the sensor it is quite easy to damage it and her cel may be due to damage (or being installed incorrectly). My car will be back tomorrow and if the ScanGauge is not hooked up I can see what the cel says it is.
All I gathered from this message is that Jacky888 is a girl (I did not know this)... and that you are getting your car back!

For $700.00 they can do without the map.
Well I figured that since they are the same company that makes the software we need, that it might have some of the applications we were looking for and could save us from purchasing this software. I was wrong, I hate Adobe.
How much and which one again and where do I get it????

See AJ's post. I am going to get it by Friday. I need to make sure I get it as a CD and not a copy by by email. OK AJ I should have purchased it by Friday and will have it shipped directly to me or you. Maybe Gil has a contact? If not don't worry as it's not very expensive.
i think i got scammed 20 bucks lol, ****** the people wouldnt let me see what they did to the o2 sensor or what ever, and then i get my car and 1hour later it pops back up, and i disc my battery the cel stayed off longer Llol wwow, but i have to check on my exhaust but i gotta find a nice cheap hydraulic jack, any one know what my dsc problem might be? when i turn off traction and dsc, it wont turn back on at all

LOL. I just realized I wasn't clear about my statement about the $700.00 software... I already have it
, I was trying to save us money by seeing if it would work instead of Mapland. My fault. ![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Gilbert the link is in the top post. You have some software for me? Let me know. Call me or pm me if you got it. Phil you can send it to whomever, I am moving soon so depending on when it gets here, it would probably be best to ship it to you and I can get it from you at the next meet or go to your place whichever comes first.

I'm putting off buying it until Friday just in case someone I know already has the program or I find a discount disc somewhere.
