I installed my Exhaust last night, Nice simple thing to do in comparison to doing the headers, test pipes and intake a month ago. But of course when I go to turn the car on afterwards it didnt want to start without a nice tap on the gas. When it did turn on I had the VDC OFF, SLIP, RAS and the SES lights turn on in the dash. Any suggestions? I believe it could be the grounding wire as that was the only thing electrical touched during the install

Welcome to NICO!!

I would try an ECU reset first, then check the O2 sensors. If the dummy lights come on after the reset, take it to a dealer to find out which system is causing the problem.

ok well i got the lights to go off and everything was fine driving. I ended up tightening the nut the holds the ground too. i came back home and turned it off. i still had trouble starting it and when i did the lights came back so i reset and started it again. I would love to know why my car wont start without pumping the gas

I believe there's a known issue with something on the throttle body (I think the TPS). It should be covered under warranty.

even if this is true im sure they will say. well you changed the intake, headers, test pipes, and exhaust so it voids warranty

You've got an '06. There shouldn't be any diagnosis fee, as it should still be under warranty.
