If you have a CEL it's the only way I know of to fix it; do you need plug n play... no but it makes it a hell of a lot easier to install and the simulator I suggested above is a quality sensor, you won't be replacing it after a month.

Do they all do this? That would make me nervouse though, completely bypassing the o2 sensor like that. I wouldn't do that without an A/F or EGT gauge. _____________________________ (in reply to Chimera02EX) Post #: 12

If the test pipe has not catalyst in it there is nothing to fail or clog. _____________________________ 06 Civic Si Mods: AEM Short Ram Intake (in reply to pWnEdU) Post #: 13

The after-cat O2 sensor does nothing but tell the ECU that there is no problem with the cat. It does not affect your A/F ratio. (in reply to rdss) Post #: 14
