Hi all,

I finally received my header from OBX. It was a real pain to get it to the Netherlands, don't know why.
But oke I have it smile.gif

Today I was looking to place it but I only got 1 sensor on my original header, and that is in the header itself.
Don't have another sensor, after the cat I suppose that''s the place for the second one.

And in my OBX I only got a hole in my downpipe

I stole the pic from capn tibs, hope you don't mind smile.gif

As you can see the pic I need the hole that is in the header.
Possible to extend the wires from my original sensor to put it in the hole in the downpipe?

Thanks!!

Extend the O2 sensor wiring and put it in the downpipe. There is a DIY on this, I think you can just unravel it from the loom and it will reach the downpipe. Or you can get some O2 plugs and make a "plug and play" extension.

The second sensor should go after the remaining cat.
