Default Resistor rating for Up-pipe EGT sensor?

Replaced the up-pipe in my standard WRX with an Sti one, which of course doesn't have an emissions sensor in it. To prevent the warning light coming on the dash the EGT sensor needs removing and a resistor put in place.

What rating does the resistor need to be - is it a 2.2KΩ one?

TIA
Richard.

Just found a thread further down the page which confirms it's 2.2. Doh!

Can the cell just be turned off when you have the remap would have thought it would be less hassle
