any o2 simulator will fix that. yes, all the o2 simulator is is a little chip like piece that splices/solders into your stock o2 wires.

Well, where do you find one? An O2 simulator! Lets see the schematics, or the shops that sell them. It seems if there was money in it, there would be some smartguy selling them.
I'm going with stock cats until I find a simulator somewhere. I guess a resonated cat deletes will do the same. Call me fussy, I just don't like tape on my dash hiding an idiot light. Show me a simulator!

^ woah, easy tough guy. no need for angry talk. o2 simulators can be found:

o2 HERE, or

o2 HERE too

not all look exactly like the one on that site, but most places know how to correct the cel fix caused by changing to test pipes, etc.

Don't get excited sen jen, my frustration let loose trying to find one has gotten the hairs on my backside up. I love the google link, nice touch! I'd say I racked up 3-4 hours hunting for simulators. The one you show looks like a legitimate, first rate mod. Now I need to decide whether to pop for the resonated cat delete pipes or the straight through. The Injen1992C's are ordered and still sitting on the fence. I don't want to draw too much attention, just a little. When most places know how to correct the CEL, are they resetting the ECU as posted in so many threads? This O2 guy should advertise on the forums, a bounty awaits him.

03.5 6MT here, no SES light. I did get it for a week one time after I started my car with the MAF disconnected but it went away on its own.

roger! i thought you would like the 1st find!! j/p, no offense really. anyway, i've got an injen ses, and was going to install the helix t.p.'s but decided not to since i'm planning to trade up. also, the sound with the injen ses is not extremely annoying, but loud with little raspy notes. it definately sounds better than "rice" cars, or straight individual throttle bodied N/A cars. i'd say just pick up the helix t.p.'s, if you're not worried about the sound difference. if you're then definately pick up some resonated cat delete pipes. Kinetix hi flows are a good choice. anyhow, yes they also reset the ecu, after installation of the o2 sim. i totally agree about the/any o2 sim seller posting up for us. it would help a lot.
