it shouldn't be throwing a CEL...did you scan for the CEL code? maybe its dumb luck and is something else and not the exhaust...

Did you pull the code to see what the ECU was unhappy about?

i thought maybe it could be the O2 tweaking out cuz of the WD40 to get the damn bolt out ... could it be just the fumes?
