Default 07 AP2 test pipe CEL fix help

I have a 2007 S2000 with HKS Hi-Power exhaust. I would like to get the Berk Test Pipe or the T1R but I have heard that 07 will throw a CEL light.

Anyone have a fix for this problem, I am interested in putting a test pipe on my car.
Thanks

I just picked up one from science of speed and added two of the help brand spark plug things and drilled holes in them. After 500 miles mine turned on. I talked to Billman at WTD this weekend and he said he had 4 extensions and wool stuff in it and the last one had a 1/8" hole in it and the CEL still turned on.

I have the invidia 70mm tp and used 2 of the help style spark plug anti foulers. Tightened the first one in, jammed the open end with steel wool. Then drilled out the second, tightened that into the first (took some force, I used a lot of steel wool) and the the o2 back in. no CEL in 600 miles

Has anyone tried an electrical fix or am I going to be the pioneer. Just add a 1 M ohm resistor in the signal wire of the 02

I think 07 is more prone to throwing cel. I bought a test pipe from a friend with a cel fixit thingy and it threw a cel, but not on his 06.

Even with the Berk HFC, i threw a CEL after 300 miles. It occasionally goes off, but only for a few hundred miles. I have an 08 fyi.
