Default 02 Simulators - Spacers for CEL fix - anyone using these?

Is anyone using these or something similar?
Amazon Amazon


I'm running longtubes with catless mid pipe... I'm a ways out from either getting a street tune or dyno tune... and would like something in the interim so that I am not staring at a CEL everyday.

Any input?

they should work provided you have enough room for them... I put a pair on a friends truck not long ago, I had to drill out the inside so his sensor tips would fit but it has been fine otherwise... they get the sensors out of the direct stream of the exhaust and the small hole on the end allows less exhaust to get to the sensors so you get a different reading than the front sensors and it should keep the light off

I have used them on other cars - work great. They make angled ones to fit tighter spaces. Make sure the ones you get are stainless (not just coated) or they will rust quickly.
