It probably had nothing to do with the light, but it was a factor in performance and stability at idle (and your bouncy Boost gauge).

My magic works from about 3000 miles away, eh?
You can thank me by attending either WCBF06 or WCBF07, your choice.

Yeah, the light will remain a mystery for a while. As long as it is gone now, I'm happy. I'll get that pipe replaced asap. Is there a good temporary fix I can do in the meantime to the pipe? I have noticed that idle at startup and when cold, is a little rough. I'm sure this is the culprit. I checked all the vac lines and put zipties on the ends to be safe.

I'll have to do some research on the times of the WCBF'*. I have a feeling I won't get the pleasure of meeting you until 07 though.

I am not a mechenic at all but here is what happened to me. I put a cai on my 92. I also removed the screen. As soon as I would move the car the Trac-off light came on. When I put the screen back in the car ran alot better and the Trac light stays off. I know there are alot of opnions about this but my screen is staying in.

Holy ancient post! Just a note BadSSE, try not to dig old threads up, it confuses people.
