    Test Pipe without chip?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I want to get a Test pipe but it will give me the check engine light.
    So i would need to chip it to take it off.
    is there another way to take the CEL off without chipping the car?
    because i dont have money for a chip now

    Find a way to get the secondary sensor away from the test pipe. My tp came with an L shaped spacer, about 2.5" in length, I don't get any CELs related to my test pipe. Some guy on ebay used to sell some a while back that worked...

    Do a search, this has been covered a million times.

    Wierd...when I installed those antifoulers they actually threw a CEL way sooner than when I did not run with them. It usually takes three cold crank-ups and about 30 miles to throw a CEL, but with the antifouler garbage on it threw a CEL at the first crank-up and it 10 miles.

    I have since removed them.

    Well a crucial factor is I'm not using antifoulers.. it's an L shaped spacer that I bought with my test pipe.. which was bought from someone on here. I'll see if I can track that person down and see where he got it from.

    There was a guy on vwvortex that sold anitfoulers for VAG cars, which he included a guarantee that it works or your money back.. If I remember correctly everyone on the vortex, including Audi owners only had good things to say about it. The same guy used to sell them on ebay also, but I couldn't find it there. Might be worth it for some to do some searching on vwvortex.

    Yeah it is the Wendell block, I believe... mine has that as well, but I haven't installed it yet. If you google it there is an indepth description of it and how it works.

    Re: Test Pipe without chip?

    antifouler wouldnt work on my car it throws a cel less frequently without the non fouler on it,with the non fouler i would throw "o2 sensor slow response" im getting chipped in 2 weeks so i just erase the code when it comes on about every 500 miles, i always carry an obd 2 scanner with me
