So the Jb4 can't clear the cel, Can anyone recommend spacers to try. I know sometimes they don't work but it's worth a shot, any ideas anyone can throw so i can order? Thank you

I had catless downpipes on my F82 M4. I tried two differenct types of spacers and neither worked as I continued to get the CEL. A tune can clear the CEL but you still have the annual inspection to deal with. It only makes about 15 to 20 hp difference in my GTR so for me its not worth the hassle.

It all depends on what is done for inspection. If you get a tune that clears it and your county does not do an obdII diagnostic to check for readiness you'll be fine. My county does not due a sniffer test and does no obdII diagnostic. As long as I don't have a cel, I am golden.
