CEL fix on test pipe
#2
it looks like a small amount of catalyst material just before the o2... pretty smart...
there are straight cat deletes that are just piping you will need an extension on the o2 bung to keep the CEL happy.
There are High Flow cats that I think have less catalyst material inside but are still pretty restrictive.
I think what they did is cool but I would be concerned with it falling out under extreme heat conditions. install it and see if it works... I'm curious...
IMO the smell isn't worth a few extra horses... these cars burn pretty clean but the exhaust smell on a TPed car is rancid.

It didnt work on my MY05. The light instantly came on. However, all i did was the anti-fouler trick and it works perfectly now.
and rosodigital- yes it does smell, that's why i don't sit behind my car

I haven't looked inside of mine but normally the cell fix is an 02 extension similar to an anti-fouler.... Best setup for eliminating the cell is having the cellfix + one antifouler with a little bit of steel wool on the inside... or 2 antifoulers.

I once had that 70mm Invidia pipe on my 06. That cel fix didn't work. But, 06+ are much more sensitive to test pipes.
After installing about 15 feet of anti foulers, I'm good.

I have a 2002 with a HKS Hi-Power and wanted to get a test pipe due to the drone but I dont really understand the whole anti-fouler or CEL fix. Does the CEL fix work and what is the anti fouler trick?
