The way I see it....you have two options.

You can roll down to an auto store and buy a non-fouler set....in which case you will have to drill into the set in order to get the O2 sensor to fit inside. But if you drill too much then you will weaken the sidewall and the damn thing will just snap right off like a toothpick.

Or......

You can wait a couple days for one and order a pre-cut ONE-piece CEL eliminator (like I have) and not have to worry about it breaking. This one will fit on your car.

Not sure if auto parts stores sell the above listed CEL eliminator. I've been to several and have never seen one so I just ordered mine from BLOX.

Maybe they can overnight it for you. Not sure though.

I assume you pulled the Cat off completely. I know some people have fixed this problem with a defouler, but I can't help but think removing the cat has something to do with it. Then again, I am not a mechanic either.

Does anyone know if these things are tuned (or reflashed) different for California emissions?

go with the defouler, got mine at Advance Auto Parts for less than $4





its less than 5 bucks, took some time to dremel out, and its FAR from too thin and breaking. Other threads ive seen where people use these use both of them, drilling out only the one the O2 fits into, but I only used the ONE that i dremmeled out..Works great! save the cash for beer afterwords

edit: sorry 4u.. just read you have the BLOX on the way...
