Who's N63 is catless... And doesn't throw a CEL

Seems like a lot of people are catless.. what did you do to keep it from throwing a CEL? I've seen a lot of threads where o2 extensions are used but still don't work correctly.

Anyone have advice?

Have you ever tried right angle adapters to space the sensor further out? I have a bluetooth/wifi obd2 tool already if it comes to that.
