just make an mechanical 02 sim. it's only $4 worth of Autozone,pepboys, part..

First of all you will need 2 spark plug anti-foulers (18mm). It is made by the HELP! brand part#42002 or 42009.

You will also need a 1/2" drill bit and drill. Or a drill bit close to that size

Drill one one the anti-foulers so that the o2 sensor can fit. I recommend using a vise grip and lube for the drill bit if you ever plan on using it again.

This is how the hole should look after. If it doesn't come out nice use a dremel or a file.

Put the one anti-fouler you drilled and connect it on top of the one you didn't. Now you don't have to buy a electrical fix and splice your wires.

Here it is installed. I recommend using anti seize on all treads.

Im looking into test pipes also. Question....why get any other test pipe besides the UR one if it already gurantees no cel?

Are other brands that much better to make it worth doing the cel fix?

A testpipe is a 1 foot long piece of pipe with flanges. Order the cheapest.

I got my cel eliminator for $15 shipped from e-bay and it works great! Just go to e-bay and type in cel eliminator. Since it makes the o2 sensor longer I did have to take a hammer and bang the body in just a little to make it fit correctly but it was worth it.
