jamesm182 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 If you have the car mapped many remaps will disable the light I think bluefin does this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevzs960 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Id love to know how a bluefin could do this as its a plug in generic map. Not a car specific map. Plus if you have a decat pipe you need to trick the pcm into thinking there isnt any wrong signals from the downstream an upstream hego sensors.

Pretty sure at least some of the bluefin maps on the multi file do this but you will have to phone superchips to double check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
