@alsaku33 Жыл бұрын

When reinstalling leave the o2 sensors off, feed down pipe from the top and “hang it” on the two studs. Snug up v-band then slip mid pipe. You can get to both o2 sensors with down pipe fully installed. Just my 2 cents in making the install easier. Nice car!

@lilyanimate7266 13 күн бұрын

ssems to me that this is a fools errand because upgrading the downpipe should serve 2 purposes 1 is flow which is obviously an improvement the 2nd however removes the catslyst so that when your using things like antilag and sending raw fuel into the exhaust you dont make excessive amounts of heat which with a cat your going to do. heat way beyond what the car is designed to handle safely. so this may look like a win win and you wont have problems with the o2 sensor over time its going to cause far bigger problems than a simple o2 sensor trouble code. heat is what ages a car faster than anything. just look at any car with all highway miles versus one that has miles in stop and go traffic.
