Well I have an header back system on my car so I dont get the CEL because the headers are stock but from my understanding most of the o2 sims seen only to work on some cars. So they arnt a 100% fix. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong here. MOst poeple I know that have used an antifouler have been successfull.

my understanding is that the o2 simulator works all the time if you install it right-thats why its expensive...I'm using the anti-fouler on my car and I haven't thrown a CEL yet..

the o2 sensor that we use the anti-fouler on is on the s-pipe...i think your confusing the maf sensor which is connected to the header and the o2 sensor which is on the s-pipe
