Default Will Hondata fix check engine light?

Before you say "you retard.....blah blah blah" read by entire question. Putting a turbo on your engine will throw a check engine light correct? Will using the Hondata correct whatever your motor is seeing so it doesnt throw a code? Or is a missing link or something similiar required? Thanks!

Hondata corrects the map voltage so no cell will be thrown. This is done by the ecu. There are no check valves or missing links needed because those bleed of the boost physicaly.

Depends what the code on the CEL is. If its a code for a faulty injector it wont fix it. Get what I am trying to say? Hope I made some sense.

Yes. Most commonly you'll throw codes for MAP sensor, and sometimes 02 sensor. It will by design eliminate the MAP sensor code, as long as you keep it below 11PSI.
