Default Invidia Test Pipe

So i received my test pipe today and installed it. After about an hour of driving my check engine light came on. I have herd that its not a guarantee that your check engine light will not come on. Is this true?
Is there anything i can do about it?

This was my cel solution to my invidia testpipe.

Same thing happened to me btw and my friend as well.

go to napa and buy 1 pack of part # 730-2442
i had another pack to do my friends


drill 1 out like so



order from left to right - 02 sensor, drilled out one, undrilled one, test pipe


dont forget to reset your ecu after doing this.

have been driving like this for about 2500 miles no check engine light anymore.

I rly didnt some places sell anti defoulers for 30+ bucks and i looked at a few pix
And decided that i rather spend 4 bucks lmfao and make the same thing. All it does is move the 02 sensor further back so it doesnt pick up direct fumes.

Jeeze, 06+ s2k's must be picky!


To the OP, if you search you will find tons of threads where people use the anti-foulers to get rid of their CEL. It's cheap, and it works.
