^I'd like to know as well.

What did you guys use for the non-fouler method with HFCs or TPs? I will have the Berk HFCs installed this coming Saturday. I heard stuffing the stainless steel wool in the non-foulers is the best option? Any idea where I can find the stainless steel wool? I'm not looking forward to seeing any CEL

I had to do the non-fouler method with my Stillen HFC's, I ran a week with out the non-fouler method and car started to jerk one day when I WOT (also threw a CEL shortly there after). So I decided to try the non-fouler's and it works fine.

About 100 miles

two sets of 18mm Non-foulers, bored one out of each set, but then couldn't bore them out enough. Took them to a local exhaust shop and they welded an o2 bung to each of the bored non-foulers. I then screwed the non bored non-fouler to the one with the o2 bung.
