Default People with positive experience with ZPI O2 sim?

I recently installed a Megan racing header on my tC and of course got the CEL light. I am thinking about purchasing the ZIP O2 sim...but all i see on the boards is negative feedback about it not working!?! can some people that have had it work on thier tC's PLEASE post?

I have the Megan Header and no CEL. Do the antifouler mod and all will be well. It's a $3.00 fix and been working for me for over 8000 miles.

I had negative results, I'm going antifouler on my Megans and reverting back to stock o2 wiring. I'd try the antifouler trick first.

thanks for the quick replies guy. i think the choice is obvious now. I will probably end up using a Camcon to correct A/F, and antifoulers should take care of the CEL.
Which antifoulers are you guys using? alphawerks?

I bought mine from Autozone....If I recall correctly they were the 18mm size. Be sure to drill the one out with a 1/2" bit clean. Don't leave a lip hanging (you will see when you do it). My brother told me that's what causes it to not work right. Open it up completely.

Man, that engine bay does look really nice. Of course this is off-topic for this thread, but I'm wondering- is all of that loom, or did you replace some of the hoses with braided ones?
