anti spark plug foulers to remove ses light

so i bin reading on this site about people doing exhausts and gettin a ses light and then getting the sim to keep it off...but why not put anti spark plug foulers to keep the light off for the price off 3 bucks at a local autozone or pepboys...i own a 2003 specv and did the complete exhaust and put them in....all it does is space the 02 sensor away from the exhaust flow to keep the ses light off....the only one that doest need a spacer is the one before the precat...im guessing on the max youll need 3 spacers...im jus wondering if any1 tried this or if every1 knew it and im jus sounding like a noob right now lol...

I just don't think simply moving the o2 sensor out is effective enough on these cars. The sim has already been proven.

^^ yes i kno...sims are made for the sentras also...moveing the sensor away from the flow of the exhaust is telling the computer that everything is ok...worked on ym specv and is proven to work from forums(specv forums) i think on the max only 1 spacer is needed....the one after the cat...i think im going to try it when i do headers and a ypipe...but thought id get it out their if any1 wants 2 try it before me...i kno it works but not yet for the max..

Some of those extenders do work but but with small holes or hole to minimize the O2 sniffing ability! I take the O2 sim over the extender though!
