remove the intake and see if it still comes on. if it does, take it to the dealer.
if it does not, it is the intake.

Remove the intake won't work for OBDII system. Once the fault bit is triggered, you need to go the dealer to have the error code cleared to turn off the light. Then put the stock intake on to see the the light truns on again

While I was doing research on this RS Akimoto Intake, I stumbled across a few posts on the internet of other cars having the same problems where the check engine light comes on. My guess is that it is the intake that is causing the check enigine light to come on...Sorry Hope this helps.

Did you reset the ECU after you put your intake in? You can pull your negative battery cable for a few min and it will reset it for you. It will also clear the codes.
