Any local tuner shop should have an OBD2 scanner. If not, the good ol' boys at autozone can usually handle a scan. It should store any immediate codes, but to look up any longer history, a factory service tool may be needed.

Alternatively, an M3post member that lives near you may have a BT tool and will scan the car for you!

I was at the dealer yesterday and asked the shop manager about installing the system on my car when it arrives in May. He said that because they are an emissions station, that they would not be able to help me out. So, I have three questions;
1. Where did you get your exhaust installed? 2. How difficult is it to install the cel delete? 3. Do you have a picture of the CEL delete installed? Thanks again.

2. Not difficult at all for a good shop. I wouldn't want to do it myself, but my shop took about 30 minutes to solder the part into the OBDII. 3. Unfortunately I do not have a picture of it installed, however the exhaust comes with detailed instructions on how to do it.

Thanks for the replies.
I am assuming that you have had no more CEL warnings? Does anybody know if you still need the CEL Delete if you are flashing your ECU?

I'm wondering if the early low-rpm power dips are eliminated by a tune. As you can see here, those dips are not present on the graph from Akropovic's official web-site: |

... or they could be initiating the graph immediately after the power dip recovery so it doesn't show on their graph. The axis markings on some of these graphs are not so detailed so it's hard to tell.

Ca$h: You might consider adding a heat sheild of some sort. There is a good reason there is one on the OEM system - to protect the nearby suspension and diff elastomers.
I like this choice and this one. I meant to mention this the other night...

If anyone has a tuned Akro dyno, I'd still like to see what difference it makes in the low rpms. |

If you get a tune you will not need the deleter, since they can just turn of the CEL. The deleter is for people that don't want a tune. I will get a tune at some point, just not yet. Quote:

I have to agree with the review on all points except for the "drone"... a drone is audible, but something even a baby can live with (yes, I know this for a fact). I'll have my review up soon as well. Thanks for sharing!

Hit 1000 miles today with the system and no CEL! Seems the deleter is doing its job. I will update after another 1000 miles or if a CEL pops up.
