Slang it and go with a High Flow Cat. Problem solved with no worries. =)

Personal If your going to use this car on the street just use your CAT... Solves alot of problems (COPS, Atmosphere, CEL, ETC.)

Someone try this please. Push a small piece of steel wool up above the fouler bung further disrupting flow over the sensor. It may work and it may not but, worth a try.

Edit- I bought the BERK TP and was going to do this on my own car but before installing it I decided to go with the HFC. Five months now and no CEL.

MY06 seems to be more susceptible to CEL. I had a T1R test pipe and had 2 anti-foulers and it would come on and off every few hundred miles or so. After a while, it just stayed off, through cold and hot weather. I have a bigger test pipe now and feared the same problem of it going on and off every few hundred miles but now it's off for good.

This may seem silly but..make sure your gas cap is tightly turned to a few clicks.

I have an 06 with a test pipe with two foulers and got a cell after a few hundred miles. So I stuck a little steel wool between the to foulers and... almost a thousand miles later and NO CELL! I hope the steel wool doesn't burn or blow out! Knock on wood

I hear that after a while the steel wool burns off and the CEL kicks on. I'll try it when I receive the blox this week from inlinefour
