Default How long does the tin foil around the 02 trick work???

just like the title says how long does it work, i guess i should ask how long have you (who have this) had it... im running a T1R testpipe and ive read the only way not to throw a CEL is this or getting a sim, also is there anyother things that work??? Thanks

just check periodically and re-wrap heavily as needed...

it should work for 2-3 months at a time

also i dont plan on plugging it in to the testpipe, due to it not having a 02 bung... so will it still eat away the tin foil???

yes, it will still heat up and eat thru the tin foil...

you can do this trick http://www.s2ki.com/forums/ind...&st=0

i.ve done it on a few cars and it worked everytime. one car even had an electronic simulator in it that failed to work after a few hundred miles.

before the defoulers i ran the foil over the 02 wrapped in 2 sandwich bags(to keep the sensor from getting wet) for about a year.
