Default Invidia TP with CELFIX (Restrict airflow) ?!?

I use to have 60mm testpipe with no CELFIX, I fixed the issue by putting a spacer to the O2 sensor (non-fouler). Now I got the 70mm and I bought it with CELFIX, it turned out that the fix is embedded ?!? Isn't this restrict airflow? I mean the whole idea of the Invidia N1 exhaust is that it has less weight and minor curves for minimum air restriction?!?! Then why did they do a testpipe with CELFIX from inside?!?!?!

thats the 70mm cel fix pictured above. mine has the tube inside the tube i guess to "shroud" the o2 sensor. however it doesnt work and you still need to do the non-fowler mod to get rid of the cel. ive been thinking about this too recently and thought about taking it out of there somehow

Ive definitely never seen a test pipe done that way before. Here are pics of my berk test pipe. Most others Ive seen are setup this way too





As far as removing it I don't really know if you can. If you remove that shroud on the inside it'll definitely throw a code. Then again as stated above someone had an issue with it throwing a code anyway. I would definitely look into getting a berk. Ive had mine on for a few months now and have never gotten a single CEL from it

That is extremely odd, I have never seen that. I had a 70mm Invidia TP with the CEL fix and it was not like yours, it was like the others pictured here. I do not like that new design.
