Default AP1 with Test Pipe - Questions

Hi guys I was looking at getting a test pipe for my car. Right now it has a Greddy Evo 2 exhaust, if I put a test pipe on my car would I get a CEL? I googled around and some people said the earlier AP1's dont get a CEL if a test pipe is put in. Only the later models 02+ AP1 and all AP2 will. Is that true can anyone confirm?

if you have CEL fix, you wont get a CEL, CEL lights are more frequent with 06+ s2k's

a cel fix simply puts the o2 sensors farther away so its not in the way of the exhaust

Sorry Im a bit of a noob but is the CEL fix extra hardware? Or is it a common DIY?

If you get a CEL with a testpipe, here's the fix:

Most testpipes come with a "fix" built in.
