Oxygen Sensor Spacers?

[G-NOTE]

Got to get my car to pass inspection, I don't have a CEL but my tune runs the o2's in closed loop so it says o2 not ready.

Before I go out and buy a catted x-pipe, has anybody used these with any success???

Not personally, but I've read on lots of other forums about guys having good luck with them. Not with the 90*, just the straight piece.

That kit includes both, I'm worried about ground clearance, since my car is slammed and the LT headers scrape as is.

I haven't used those but have used the non-fouler for close to 30k miles with an O/R x and have had no problems, and I use 2 stacked and there is plenty of room,

The anti-fouler I used was from O'reilly's auto parts, You need 2 packs of 2 (4 anti-foulers total)

one set you need to drill the hole out to 1/2 inch so the o2 sensor can fit. When I tried just using one in each hole it ended up throwing a CEL, so (from reading around) I used a 2nd anti-fouler on each sensor and so far no CEL.

this is what you need, it's the 18mm one

and you DON'T need to drill the 2nd one... so from the x pipe (or h pipe) you put the NOT drilled one in, then the drilled one in, then the sensor... hope that makes sense.

Do you still have your rear O2's turned on to know if it would throw the CEL?

They are... I'm running stock tune and NO CEL.

I have my first inspection coming up in Nov. and am wondering if I should buy a catted x-pipe. I have the curved O2 relocators but will have to drop the pipe to install them.

So how long did you drive it with the stock tune before getting it inspected?
