It happens to mine once in a while. It's not a big deal. I get it once or twice a year. Usually during a weather change. It only happens at idle. It registers as a "system bank one too lean". Usually takes place at around 800 rpm and is only out of the ECU parameters for less than a second. I think it's a just a very minor hiccup in the programming. EVO said not to worry about it.

hopefully it's what deputydog has expierenced. i doubt it's something major since my car still drives fine and boosts hard


that's why it's essential to have an OBI reader when you supercharge your car to read and clear codes

i should be able to know by Friday when the reader comes

Make sure you order the porsche specific one. I have the generic one. Although mine works fine, apparently you can do more stuff with the pcar one.

We are working hard on it... The attitude has switched gears here as we are working even harder to get all our Porsche Kits CARB approved.

CELs are a way of life with the SC. I have had p1105, 1106, 1107, 1108, 1109, 406, and others. I now just get an occational idle CEL every 500 to 800 miles and erase it with a little Actron OBD II reader in 2 min. I have the Durametric but it is a pain to hook up my laptop vs a simple handheld device. I have discussed this with VF many times as well as Evo and they have blamed the altitude, my early unit (#19), the C4S itself being more trouble, and just a "glitch". I have a hotrod Mitsubishi Evo with 307 whp, cams, exhaust, injectors, boost control, intake, fuel rail, etc. and it throws CELs as well and runs like a bat out of hell. I just don't pucker much about it anymore. It usually boils down to emissions issues and not performance. Will
