I'm picking up my car today, and with stock software it apparently is setting off the check engine light.

Default i would need to see the code but its one of two things....

warmup codes, if its that just clear it and you should be fine. Otherwise it might have been a botched install and they either killed and 02 sensor or they disconected the MAF and you have an intake leak. It could be a hold of other problems but without seeing output from a VAG its hard to tell what it is, I would look at the instake area first though.

Default I'd go with the O2 sensor getting damaged on the install.

the tip of sensor is way to easy to damage and the wiring can easily tear running back to the harness. I was lucky with my dealer. they replaced the o2 and wiring after my DP install, under warrenty

Default The O2 sensors are fine. It may be that they are the 'early batch' of 100 cell cats...

which are no longer in use.

Yikes. I think 100 cell cats will give you catalyst efficiency problems.
