SPARK PLUG FOULER & MIDPIPE

I am thinking about buying a midpipe and I know some have gotten a cel. When I owned a civic I came across a little trick on one of the honda forums to keep the cel from coming on when using a high flow cat. You get two spark plug foulers and drill one of them out so the sensor end of the 02 passes through it. Next you screw the drilled fouler and sensor into the undrilled fouler and insert same into the midpipe....I never got a cel using this trick on my civic with high flow cat. Do you guys think this would work for those who have a cel due to the midpipe.
