You're going to need a tune with those mods. Take it to autozone or pep boys and have the code ran. It's free and only takes a minute.

Just take it to your local auto parts store and have them pull the code if you haven't reset it by unhooking your battery yet.
Then post the code that they pull and we can help.

Is this light suppose to come on before scheduled maintainence? I got the light at around 4850-4900miles and i assumed it was for the 5k maitainence.

That is not the case for the EVO. If the light is on, it is because a sensor was tripped.

What are the sensors that are controlled by the "Service Engine Soon Light"? Mine just came on now and I just got it back from the Mitsu dealer on Thursday
