It fits. It comes pre-drilled so the SECONDARY O2 sensor just twists right in and the piece twists right into the race header pipe.

Before installing it make sure you have your battery disconnected so that it won't read a problem with the O2 sensor.

And make sure you put it onto the SECONDARY O2 sensor (the one on the horizontal portion of the pipe) since it is the one that needs to read a smaller amount of fuel mixture in order to prevent the CEL from being triggered.

I've had mine on for over a year now and haven't had a single CEL.

It works!

This is one of the only websites, noobs should be focusing on. Not only is it the official Mugen site for the US, but they have a lot of other 06+Si parts to. Oh PS if your not a total idiot you can call them an discuss any basic questions relative to a mod they sell. (Omni Power Titanium CEL Eliminator - Offroad Use Only )=$34.99
