Invidia 70mm TP: problem!
OK, so i just installed my Invidia 70mm TP w/ CEL fix on friday and now i have a problem. I started up the car and there was no issue, it ran fine no CEL light or anything. Around 1.5-2hrs later and approx (40miles) ..yup, you guessed it...the CEL light came on, WTF 
Maybe i'm OCD but whenever that light comes on, i get very uneasy and this TP was supposed to fix that problem. Does anyone else have this TP and have an issue with the CEL...I'm thinking maybe the 02 sensor is loose?, but i know i tightened it pretty good

the 07's with the drive by wire can be very tricky to get it to work right, you may want to get an o2 fouler plug and install that along with the test pipe, also i dont know if you got my other offer, i got 2 of the bolts with the springs if you wanted to canel your order with honda

GL the newer models are prone to CEL problems with TP's, The anti-fouler tricks don't seem to work.
Not saying it won't but I don't recall seeing anyone who has been successful

i have an 07 with t1r test pipe and two anti foulers and CEL kept coming on around 400mi so i added two more anti foulers and its been 800mi so far. i think that should fix it. ill let you know if it comes on again and if it does

There are plenty of threads about MY06+'s that work just fine with TP's. I have the T1R from A-J with their anti-fouler that looks like the BLOX (from inlinefour.com) and have never had a cel with over 25k miles on it now.
Yes our o2's may be more sensitive (which is still completely unproven) but an extra anti-fouler or the blox type will work just fine.

go to auto zone buy two spark plug foulers. they come in a pack. they are 3/4 i believe. its been a while. anyway one of my members have an 07 with dbw. his berk test pipe was throwing a cel. anyway drill a hole through the first one and make it flush with the threads on the outside. then the one you drilled will screw into the one that is not drilled. screw the 02 sensor into that one and then the foulers into the test pipe. problem solved. yes you do have to use two otherwise it will still go off. sorry i dont have pics.
