Just reached 600 miles since installing non-foulers for my HFC CEL issue. So far all is clear, and my fuel mileage has gone from an average of 21 (combined city/highway) to 26!!! It seems as though I must have been running really rich to net such a result.

So all you HR owners planning to get HFCs, plan on getting non-foulers just to be on the safe side!!

Are these still working i.e. no CEL/SES lights? Do you have the part #?

Let me know if you need another test mule. I've got an '06 with a non-revup (5AT).

I got about 590+miles after the SES reset/after i drilled a bigger hole on the non foulers... it works for me, but sorry i don't have any part numbers. Just tell them 18mm non foulers, it should say right on the packaging.

I don't remember since it's been several weeks but it had something to do with the 02 sensors. I'll take the car back to the shop to have them read the code again.

No. I'm having trouble finding 07 and 08 CEL's with confirmed catalytic efficency codes.

More test cars are needed.

Are the subjects that have requests the prototype test model not reporting back, or do they just not have the right symptoms?

I can't remember.
With so many PM's I have to periodically delete them.

Let me know how your install goes.

1 not reporting back, 1 partial report back (inconclusive), 1 report back air leak code.

Overall... inconclusive.
We need clear cases of catalytic inefficency CEL codes on 07 and 08.

I reseted the codes and currently have 49miles on it. No mileage difference. What does this means? my heated sensors are going bad?
