Default 02 fix instead of tune!

I was talking with a friend of mine at work, we were discussing tunes and warranty and such. He then told me about this steel bits that connect to the 02 sensor that is supposed to keep the check engine light off which could help those of us worried about warranties rest easy. Here is the link:

Had anybody heard of or used these before?

I went to autozone and bought Spark Plug Non-Foulers. They were in the section were they sell the HELP stuff. They were like $3.00 or something. Same thing as that link but cheaper. They did keep my check engine light off. Do a google search for Spark Plug Non-Foulers and you will find some how-to's on them.

I have 2 sitting on my dresser that I just never installed for when emission time comes around. This way I dont have to swap out the x pipe for inspection which takes about an hour and jacking the car up and all, all I have to do is flash back to stock and drive 100mi than get it inspected and reload the tune.

Only problem with using them daily all the time, is our rear 02's have cat overtemp sensors in them which add fuel to the air/fuel ratio if the cats get hot. If we "bypass" that with these non-foulers theres no telling how they will react as far as adding/minuting fuel from the mixture
