Default Having Secondary Air Injection Problems?

Try this cool kit!
First off, the secondary air injection system is mainly used for cold start emissions. Meaning it only affects cold start emissions, and has virtually nothing to do with driving/ idle emissions. You only hear it working, when? During cold starts.
This module simulates the existence of a Honda S2000 air pump system. If the air pump system is defective or deleted, installing this simulator will eliminate the associated air pump system Check Engine Light (CEL)!!!

http://www.izzeracing.com/Site/S2000...Simulator.html

I've been running this kit for quite some time and I haven't had a problem. Even if you dont need the kit because of a failed/faulty air pump or vac-lines, use it to benefit from minor weight reduction or hell sell it to the poor soul that doesnt know about this product. Anyway, install was fairly easy. If you can follow directions and have a steady hand you should be fine. If uncomfortable doing this please have a professional do it. Good luck!!!!-Justin

how many miles approximately have you logged, and is there a code being thrown at all? (stored or otherwise)

I remember there was another kit out that tried to trick the ECU and it would eventually throw a code

this isn't that failed to fix the secondary air injection systems malfunction(s), this is a totally different product that actually works on the US models. I currently have about 3k miles while using this kit and I used my code reader to check it once I installed it, it showed no cel(s). I checked it again before this post and still no cel. There isnt a code being thrown or stored.

this is a pretty awesome product, gonna try to add it to my list of list of parts on the website.. lol

anything that can remove weight and keep its function for such little money is a win win.

If this passes all Cali inspections, I'd be more than willing to buy. What's the return/guarantee policy if it doesn't pass inspection?

Does Cali check cold start-ups, or just while running emissions?If they just do the scan and go method then you'll be fine. Sorry, I'm not familiar with Cali's emissions laws
Would this be the checklist?
Do you have a sealing gascap? (Blau is good, Stant is not).
Do you need a fuel restrictor for CA?
Are your valves adjusted?
Is your vacuum level good?
Is you timing and idle speed in spec?
Are your points, condenser, rotor, cap, spark plugs and wires new?
Have you changed the oil, oil filter and air filter? (lowers HC)
Have you set the AFR to within passing limits?
Is your smog configuration correct?
Is all of the emission related equipment working?
Have you filled up on premium fuel? (it burns cleaner)
Did you warm up the engine by driving for 20-30 minutes?

If so, as long as youre warmed up you'll be fine

why not just replace the faulty airpump? It may simulate it, but it's still gonna run rich at cold start and eventually foul the o2 sensor correct?

Do you even know the ridiculous price of an air pump? I do, around 499 new. Do you know its function? "eventually it will foul the o2 sensor" is bull crap, eventually you end up replacing your air pump again(I've done that twice). Are you aware that all most everyone with ems deletes this whole system? No reports of a o2 sensor fouling because of it.

I am quite aware of the function of an AIS. But if O2 is not present to reduce HC & CO during open loop condition, that’s just excessive fuel that is unburnt in the cat and leads to the o2 sensor. No reports that have been known of, but it’s happened. If you had to replace two air pumps, then the problem is within that circuit. The duty cycle may have been on longer due to a stuck relay or excessive amperage may have damaged it. Nothing is bullet proof, but if you can afford an s2000 & can’t afford the parts then immo..

Unfortunately youre wrong about my situation, I replaced it because it was old and rotting away, and I had to replace it again because I accidentally damaged it in my garage. You keep saying "if" as if something has happened yet you fail to present facts. Who has this happened to? "if you can afford an s2000 and cant afford the parts" bitch shut the **** up, I've OWNED a S since 2003, it's my autocross toy. I hate m-f's like you that waste my time. All I posted was a product review and I have his pencil dick kid telling me **** he has NO CLUE ABOUT. Did you even view the product?

I don't know what your problem is, I'm just answering your questions.

[QUOTE=You keep saying "if" as if something has happened yet you fail to present facts. Who has this happened to?[/QUOTE]

Sure I didn't know your situation of the air pump but since you own an s2000, you should have known what I was referencing. 06-055, it's a common failure on the air injection system of the s2000's.

Great you autocross, I've been on a Motor-cross team with a prototype AP2 000009 given from Honda. Built it up, raced it & destroyed it by request from Honda and was given an AP1 to redo all over again.

I work on more Honda's a day than you probably do, EA licensed & more certified than you which is a given. Ever heard of a bad coil simulating a transmission slip? Yes, I reviewed that product and in my opinion it will do more damage than good in a daily driver. It's those simulator that keep us Honda tech's busy with work since they fail causing an increase in amperage or short in that circuit which fry the drivers in your ECM.

Youre a ****in idiot, if you have detailed questions about the product dont suck my dick but try contacting the people who created it. HINT:Their e-mails are in the link. Hard to believe people would actually trust you with decision making when it comes to cars, because you lack common sense. THIS IS ONLY A PRODUCT REVIEW. I wish I could explain that on the lowest level for you to understand, but I guess I've failed you. Dumbass. HONDA TECH's dont know ****, you bastards **** up more **** that repair so suck the big dick of really. We only need the parts department all you other ****ers can quit. FOR THE FINAL TIME "THIS PRODUCT IS FOR RACE USE ONLY, aparently you reading skills arent that great because that has now been stated 3times. "It's those simulator that keep us Honda tech's busy with work since they fail causing an increase in amperage or short in that circuit which fry the drivers in your ECM" STFU you have NO clue what amperage this thing creates, I'll give you a hint though...THE EXACT AMOUNT IT TAKES TO POWER THE AIR PUMP! you ****in wasted my time once again, PM me instead dip ****..I dont have have a problem this is how I talk...I'm only alittle upset when I use CAPS. A lot of your questions shouldnt be answered by me; e-mailing the creator would have been a smart idea instead of clouding the thread. You did keep be moderately entertained but now you bore me, so I'll let you live. I think you dont understand what the product is which is unfortunate, and I cant explain it any better for your understanding, so contact Caleb.

from a outside POV... reviews can have both sides to a story and yours is a little one side (kinda like, BUY THIS PERFECT PRODUCT!!!)

nowhere in your first post nor on the site did i read "race application ONLY". if this is for race applications, then why are you getting into emission details with another member (vs just telling him sry for off street only)?

Within the first post there's a link, within that think what is in red lettering? Im not trying to sell anything just stating facts. I stated with this kit no cel was thrown or stored. Im in florida, emission dont affect me, so I asked questions about emission laws, still unanswered...read before posting...reviews go off you the poster's experience with the product, how can you post a flaw if none came up???

To clear up some misunderstands about the product, it is not this kit http://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/7119...-by-challenge/ it is something very different

Considering all the spamming you've been doing on this board with this 'kit', I have a hard time believing you're just an arms-length customer.

Stop flaming those who question your product.. you only stand to lose more customers.

Seriously spamming, get real, I'm not associated it nor am I needing "customer business" why? Because I dont have a business! I simply purchased a product, used it for a "X"amount of time, thought it worked great then shared it with others. Where people buy this or not honestly wont effect me and my life at all, I just posted information and contacts you could use if you have questions to ask....that is all. If you have a hard time understanding that then, I cant help you
