CEL ELiminator does not allow the Check Engine Light to go on and wont let your car go into Limp Mode. Once you remove the Header and main Cat you attach the
CEL ELiminator to the S-pipe and take the sensor and plug it to the other side of the Eliminator and Gives the ECU a Correct Air Fuel Ratio Readings.

Default cel eleminator

hey i just purchased the wr header and s pipe, coming in the mail pretty soon. I was wondering do any of your check lights come on after installing it? or did you have to install a cel eliminator?

I don't have the WR header but you will need to install the CEL eliminator into the s-pipe to avoid a CEL. AFAIK it's included with the header.

It depends on where you buy it from if the CEL eliminator is included or not. Most of the time it is not included, but could be purchased with it.

AFAIK without the O2 sensor the ECU will default to a rich "safe" mode. You really need to install the O2 sensor. The ECU relies on it to determine the correct air/fuel ratio. Running without it can ruin your catalytic convertor, foul your plugs and worse.

Why won't the O2 sensor fit? Are the threads messed up? If so, chase them with the correct size tap/die or go to a shop and have them do it for you. You should have a angled CEL eliminator pipe that installs into the O2 bung on the s-pipe and the O2 sensor goes into that. Sorry, no pics.

I imagine it should sound better (and run a lot better too) with the O2 sensor installed. I don't have the W-R header or a sound clip but adding a header does change the sound and add some rasp.
