Cel Problems (o2)

* i tried looking at the stickys i keep getting more confused...

i got a new exhaust on the car and its a turbo back no cats... now the check engine light comes on and i scan it and its saying o2 fail meaning no cats... one of the holes in the exhaust has a cap the other hole looks like it has a cell fix or a old o2 sensor in it and it seems to be wired...i need help with this cause im trying to pass inspection.

your not going to pass an inspection without a cat. Unless you know somebody that will do it illegally

CEL fix

I have an 07' MR and had the same problem.What i did was go online to ebay and bought a part called the CEL fix for about $5+shp.I guess the 02 sensor connects to it and you connect both to your test pipe hole.(The hole near the end of your test pipe). Its been 6 months and no check engine light.

yea i have one of those because my exhaust is just a straight 3.5" shot to the back. i dont think he would pass inspection but sometimes they are lazy and just pass you. i see you drive an 06 shelby gt 500 i really like that car how is it? pm me.
