After turbo install, getting check engine light.
OK I'm throwing code P1491 Auxilary Emissions Controls. I don't know what to do to fix it. I have a 98 Prelude and if you need any further information just post and I'll provide it. Thanks

Right now all I have is a VAFC. I'm planning on getting emanage (because tuner here uses it a lot) soon. But I don't have the money.(But I"m not really driving the car so I don't have to worry about much now.)
Setup is....
t3/t4 turbo
custom manifold
custom downpipe 2.5 inch
wastegate with 8 1/2 pound spring
stock internals
450 cc injectors
255lph fuel pump
I think that's it...

I don't know. I didn't install it myself. How can I check?
Thanks for the help.

Ok. I'll do that today and come back with results.
