Default Engine Light Problem

I have a 91 crx si. I just bought the car. I have tanabi exhaust, headers, and aem intake. After i drive the car for a little while the check engine light pops on. What could it be. I can't figure out why it would wait so long to come on. The car is running fine temp wise and everything. I was wondering if maybe it had something to do with the O2 senser cuz the ecu doens't like that much air but then again that may just be hopeful thinking.

Thanks for your help

the ecu has an LED light that blinks on and off and depending on the number of blinks......that is the engine code that you are throwing and then we can tell you where to start looking for the problem.
