B58 catless downpipe fix o2 spacer

Bfifty8 · 07-23-2017, 03:29 AM

Just thought I would put it out there for anyone that was curious or was wanting to go this route. So I decided I didn't want the jb4 yet and got the jb+ I realized the cel would come up so I decided to give the of spacers a shot.
Didn't have time to order it online but I went to oreilys and bought the spark plug no foulers for 5 dollars. Stacked two of those together and spaced out the second o2 sensor. And I am happy to say that I haven't gotten a check enshrine light and haveput on 300 miles now. Seems to be working! If anyone was deciding on going this route it's definitely worth not seeing the cel on the dash.😁

Great! It was a question I always had and wanted to try it out and let people know

I have been running spacer for 1k miles and just now got a CEL. Wonder if it was a fluke.

check the code and see if it's actually related

It was. I cleared it and have been driving 100miles clear now so again maybe a fluke.

Depending on length of the extender the cel light may come back. If it does get a longer extender and that will take care of it

Has anyone tried running a cat sim instead of an o2 spacer for their catless DP?
