Default 02sim card

zpi racing in the sponsored sales section is selling the sim cards for the CEL from headers. i think they're $40.

The O2 sim cost 95 these are TC specific and don't trick the o2 but correct the A/F so that the car maintains good mileage while making optimal safe power. You really should not use the antifouler kit on the O2 in the header as it is a wideband, and a very complex one at that. We have seen diffrent hp # and A/F by just moving the 02 up or down stream as it knows what temp it should see due to placement. These are plug and play and do not require any splicing.

Is this better or pretty much the same as the nexus / alphaworks o2 sim?

i don't understand this at all. i emailed zpi racing and asked them if this was the antifouler or sim card for sale in the sponsored sales section for $45.

not only that, i e-mailed them to find out for sure if it was the antifouler of the sim card. there reply was simple: "sim card" how can they now be selling the same thing for $95 even though it's listed in the sponsored sales section for $45. something's not right

The $45.00 fix was a mechaical fix that works much like the anti fouler kit, As we did some more testing these units where elminating the CEL but not were not correcting the A/F like we wanted. We now only offer the sim card type fix as we liek the end results much better.

i think that it was just a simple mis understanding. You read the 45.00 fix and when you emailed us we had already swith to the sim card style we just as there was no price mentioned in the email we assumed you were talking about the item that we currently offer.

Sorry for the confusion.

To answer the question on how you install it. You simply unplug the O2 sensor form the engine harness, plug our unit into the O2 plug and then into the Enigne harness and that is it.

so we take out our o2 that goes into our header, then we plug in yours and then plug in our 02 back, and we get corrected a/f ratio...what did you do the the sim card that made the changes that our stock o2 couldnt do...also what kind of hp increase are we looking at....1-5 etc...because 100$ is a lot for a simple check engine light
