CEL and EML light after catch can install...

I installed my M7 OCC yesterday and at first got some noise. Then connected it the way the diagram showed, then had an idea and put a t fitting so the supercharger and CAI(ags) lines both ran to the catch can. Now Im driving along and the EML light appears, I shut off the car, turn it back on and the Service Engine Soon light comes on and stays on until I shut it off again, the EML light is the same way. What did I do wrong? How can this be fixed? The car drives just fine, I can still chirp the tires when going into second, the center console just looks like a christmas tree and I'm wondering if there might be some underlying damage...

Thanks

Mikey

Check for the connections... There might be a little leak somewhere...

Yes, check everything you touched...

Or even better, get the CEL codes out. AutoZone and other places like it do it for free...

Keep us updated
