After doing the intercooler muffler delete with an 8" section of hose the hose blew loose after the first run from not being tightened enough. After driving back home a mile and making the repair a check engine light came on and stayed on. Any ideas and how do I get it off?

 

Is it just a code or are there drivability issues?

Is the light stuck on?
Do you have access to a code reader?
You could try the battery reset method, (future posters may deny its use, I have no comment, but it's worth a try)

I took mine out without any codes or issues.
Though when it came off, it could set a real code that may have to be cleared with a reader.

 

Grab hold of an approved MINI-protocol scanner, and remove the stored fault code.

NO, removing power from the ECU does not clear out faults as the codes are stored in the ECU's non-volatile memory.
You must use a scanner to correct clear any stored codes from the ECU.

You will need a code reader to read and clear the codes. If the car is driving fine, it most likely related to the leak at install.
