Looks like a brilliant idea.

Has ANYONE kept the CEL off in a 2006-2009 s2k with a test pipe?

I have a 2006 with Greddy SE Dual with a drone that was mind numbing. Installed a 70mm Berk test pipe with CEL fix that got rid of the drone but immediately got O2 CEL. Talked to Berk and they sent me some stainless steel wool to stuff into O2 sensor stub before installing O2 sensor. Works like a charm. I have three thousand miles since then with no CEL. Internet search reveals that this fix has been successfully used on a large number of auto brands and configurations. Go figure.

Didn't we resolve this issue already? Maybe should put in the FAQ.

There is a $13 spacer from Blox that kept mine CEL-free.

I have tried two spacers, 4 spacers, and steel wool with no luck.

I guess there is a tiny window of success with the 06-09 cars with getting the flow just right. Not to much, not too little.

So it is definitely not resolved. What works for one person is not working for all like the 00-05 cars.

More reason for people to give it a shot.
'06+ also has a TSB for an ECU update that tweaks sensitivity of the o2.
