Berks are prone to throw a CEL since they dont really have 02 extensions. Your best bet to get rid of the light for good is to get non-foulers put in. The farther the sensor is away to the cat the less likely you'll trigger a code.

I have an 02 extender built into my high flows and I've been running strong for over 4k miles without any CEL.

You wont lose performance either, just have to put up with the annoyance of having a service engine soon on your dash.

They technically do, but the amount of space between the sensor and the cat itself is minimal which lets the sensor still get a good air / fuel readout. I wouldn't really call it extended because Fast Intentions and GTM both use J-style 02 extenders and they work like a charm even on their test pipes.

These are the GTM, FI uses the same style. You can see how far the 02 bung is extended:


Here's the Berks, barely extended that far really:
