Turbo Installed, Check Engine light at 2.1k RPM
Installed Hondata s200b and everything else needed for my turbo. Car runs fine, boosts nice, problem is that it throws a CEL after 2000 rpm. Anyone know what that could be?

There is a laundry list of things that could be wrong! Are you boosting over 11psi? I believe that will throw a CEL.

actually im too afraid to check the ECU with a brick on the gas holding it above 2k rpm because no one else helping me on it, i was just curious if this was a common problem

I had a problem with mine doing that and found out it was the set button.When I tried to set the limits full throttle shift was being set at 12,xxxrpms.So I called Hondata and they told me to set all of my rev-limits in Hondalogger and that got rid of the CEL above 2000.

I think i figured out problem from the guy that had the kit previously, he just never changed his shift-light (which happens to be the CEL) from 2000rpm, lucky me my engine is fine!
