Icon2 strup cel eliminator, does it work?
Anyone tried the CEL eliminator sold on club rsx? I bought a strup race header a couple months ago and have had the check engine light on ever since. Will this fix it?

I have/had one and it worked for me. I didn't use it very long though because I bought k-pro shortly after my header.

You bought a shorty header and it gave you a cel? do you still have your cat? you probably messed up your o2

I have a no name 4-1 header on my car and an aftermarket cat. Will the cel eliminator work for me? My censors and cat are also barbequed. Will I need to replace them for it to work?

P0133 is a slow heating element, maybe your splices/wires are bad, connected wrong or shorted out or just a bad o2-sensor. Not much to do except repair or replace the sensor.
