if it has 1 lamda after the turbo but before cat you wont get a light on as its measuring the engine efficaincy, how well the the engine is burning the air and fuel the cat is after so all good just raised emmisions at the tailpipe if you have a second one under car but after the cat you will get a light on as this is measing the cat efficiantly steve

A mate had this untill he gunned the car and then the Cel came on. Car has since been remapped but it took about 3 weeks for the cel to come on.
