Exclamation No reburn needed? Thought we did?

Installed a Chrome Oil Breather a few weeks ago and have put over 100 miles on her since. The question is I thought we needed a chip reburn for this mod? Since puting 100 miles on her in various different types of driving situations this should have had plenty of time to complete the drive cycles needed to turn the SES light on if it was gonna come on right? Or am I missing something here? Does it just hinder performance a little or are some of you having SES lights setting codes?
Just wandering...since my baby is performing just fine with the new mod....gonna monitor my oil seperator bowl to see if she is drinking less...LOL.

I know mine has thrown plenty of SES lights. That is even with the chip burned for it. Hasn't in a while now though. I get all worried when it does. Then I scan it and know what it is and I am all better. I guess some trucks are fussy about it and others aren't>???

And they say all these trucks are built equal? NOT! LOL.. I have run into stuff like this before...on one it does one thing and on another it does nothing...LOL. But it keeps us all on our toe's. Just like how you can get into one Cobra and it run like a raped ape from the factory and another exactly the same on the lot runs like a Biotch!!!!

Mine never throw a code either ??? Watch out it can lean you out a tad bit like cpeapea said. If your running on the edge with your A/F it could be a problem. I took mine off a while ago when I leaned out and melted (3) plugs at the track. Probabaly has nothing to do with it, but I don't wan't to take a chance until I get it Dyno'd.
