Forgive me if this is incorrect, but could the CEL be showing up on these Berk cats because of carbon build-up in that O2 sensor extender tube? could it be something as simple as removing the O2 sensor and then cleaning any carbon build-up? Again, I have no idea, just throwing out some possibilities on what could be causing it.
Dude, review the thread. I already explained the fix a couple of pages back. I even included a link to a DIY with pics.

Edit: Here's the link to the exact post. It's called the non-fouler method. You can also just stuff some steel wool into the port and apparently that works as well. Hope this helps! (Actually, I hope your HFCs never throw a CEL to require one of these fixes to begin with!) Stillen HFC vs. BERK HFC
