If I'm not mistaken, there is an ECU patch for it as well, where they use the front O2 sensor and feed that to the code that looks for the rear sensor. I'll let you know if I can find that post and info on how to patch the ROM. $10 is a safe bet though for the cel fix hardware.

Maybe I'll see you there if you go on Tuesday. I'm hoping to get some StopTech lines.

That is still in beta stage and only applies to one rom ID as far as I know.

Patience. ;)

Or you can go to Kragen and get the 2 spark plug anti foulers for a total of $4.

that's the Ghetto_DSM_Civic mod that caused a short in my harness blowing an ECU fuse whenever i ran into a puddle, i'll definatly be going anther route whenever i put my TP back on.

How did it cause a short? Did you cut wires?... that is strange.. I've had it that way for 8 months now, going through mud, puddles, snow no problems..

i thought it was this thread, but guesse not.Â* I mentioned it a few days ago.

The o2 sensor is moved out farther and made it closed to the underbody.Â* When my exhaust shook(worst when starting) the o2 sensor was banging against the underbody, pinching the o2 sensor wires between the "casing" of the sensor, and the underbody, thus stripping the insulation.Â* Water would connect the bare wires and short the fuse to my ECU.

EDIT:
depending on your catback, maybe the angle is more horizontal than mine and this won't be a problem. Mine is an HKS, i don't remeber which.
