You know from your last thread that it can't(no offense). Use this. If you have a problem with an uppipe cel, do the resistor mod.

peace

THe uppipe u can just get a resistor for at radio shack.. then just insert one end into one side of the egt plug bend it, put the other side in and just tape it up.. You need a 2.2k ohm 1/2 watt resistor

The 'splice' fix just renders the OBDII cycle to 'pending' the o2 check and if any OBDII device is plugged in, it will show this.

If you are in an area where there is any OBDII emissions testing, the 'splice in fix' will cause you to fail the test...

The 'mechanical fix' does NOT-say again- NOT produce a 'pending' state for the OBDII cycle, and you will pass the OBDII test.

THIS is why the 'mechanical fix' is a better 'fix', IMO

Wrong, I had the MIL eliminators on both of my old cars (03wrx and 00mustang GT) and I passed Emissions without anyproblems..
