We obviously see this topic differently and we are not going anywhere. Let do something constructive and beneficial to this forum. Let’s open thread and get feedback from other owners that have installed midpipes. Let see what they have to say.

I have helped install several midpipes on RX-8’s and have yet to see one not trigger a CEL without the simulator.
Are you or are you NOT calling me a liar. This is important and you must address this.
I don't care about what you have seen or done at this point. No doubt you have triggered plenty of CELs.

Come on guys...there are enough idiots here to argue with, two smart guys arguing is a waste of time.

Thank you Maniac for the scans. I know the effiency of the CAT is judged by the difference in the front and rear 2 readings. I just want to make sure the rear signal still fluxuates to avoid a P0138/138 code.

BTW in your "CANSCAN" Post I see you have an option for the mode 6 info.

Can you see the CAL level?

No, there is no interrogation string for the "CAL" value, yet.
Coming soon...

You both need to cool it. This argument about whether or not somebody called somebody else a liar is childish and silly.

If his car has no rear O2 sensor yet still has no CEL, only he will know it. You can't accuse someone of anything unless you have proof. Maybe his car has a problem, ever think of that? Maybe it doesn't. If it didn't throw a code on his car, it doesn't necessarily mean it won't on another car. There are also people on here that say the O2 simulator did work on their cars and others say theu didn't. Who's wrong now? MM is one of the most honest guys on here and he really knows what he is doing. If he says it, it is true on HIS car. Each car is a little different. What should happen isn't what always does happen.

Just to add some clarification:

I DO have the rear O2 sensor, just no CEL.

I thought that (the presence of the rear O2 sensor) was abundantly clear (since I took a picture of it in the original thread), but now I've come to the conclusion that a rhino in a vat of butter would go completely unobserved by some around here...:p

Mazdamaniac's rep speaks for itself as does his skill. The question should be 'how do I get my car to do that?' Perhaps there is something to do with the emanage install he's done?

I'm afraid that RX8on19s didn't quite absorb that fact, though. He has a problem with facts...

Does this mean I learned something? :D Just curious MM. Is this caused (or lack thereof) because the o2 signal is going into your emanage instead of ecu thus no CEL? Also...does your canscan thingymabobber (technical term) read from eman or just ecu?

No, it is (seemingly) caused by the fact that I run leaner A/F ratios and the PCM is satisfied that the exhaust going out the pipes is clean enough because of that.

The CanScan thing-a-ma-jig only reads the PCM, but that is enough. The E-Manage does a pretty good job of logging itself.

Angry easy guys

wow I can't get over how the posters on this board can *uck with people the way they do.
MM I think your honest
we talked about this when I installed my B&B pipe with resonator and I put on a sim and got the cel.
I still have it but don't worry about it after finding out it did NOT effect the tune.
I was gonna try the casper but have decided to save my money.

Still again in several posts I made I have been slammed like you just were and I don't like it.
everyone has an opinion but this forum is supposed to help not slam people.

even when a guy who lists himself as a senior member asked how to get his rotors off to paint them (rusty on delivery)
then asked four or five more questions about them he was not slammed like this(and maybe a senior member should have some really simple basic car skills or at the least not admit it).

Jeff thanks for your sharing
and keep it up.......!!!!!!!!

and the rest of you talk nice or get f off the board

And you my friend have a problem admitting when you are wrong. Does 35 offset ring a bell?

Thank you

Are you still insisting that I'm wrong about this? You really think I have a CEL after seeing the video and the pics?
Unbelievable.

As far as the 35mm thing goes, I'm not sure what you are talking about specifically, but if I got something about it wrong I'm sorry.
