Yes I believe it can go away after a number of "normal" driving cycles.

I installed the Megan pipo with the anti-foulers and they work perfect with no cel and also with no can-o-bees sound it is much louder at higher rpm's and a bit more kick.

Did you try resetting the ecu? I got rid of some CEL's that way. Actually only one I think.

The CEL will go on when it currently sees a problem. Your ECU senses an out of spec condition depending on the environment/driving style. If you drive in such a way that you stay within the parameters; no code. The CEL remains stored in memory until you erase it.
