I recently took my CAT. converter off, and the o2 sensor was stuck and I was short on time so I cut the wire. Im going to drill a hole and insert the sensor into the new pipe this week, but I was wondering if not having that o2 sensor there will affect my performance? Thanks for your feedback.

 

Yes. By a great amount.

 

Yea......probly robbing 30hp at top end

 

Where are you getting that figure?? Especially when the ecu goes into open loop at wot.

 

No kidding...is it really that significant? Because I have been racing alot this week to test the differences and I actually had trouble pulling on a stock Jeep Cherokee, I was in first about 3k and we both floored it at the same time, maybe by the time I was at the end of second gear I was almost clearing his front bumper with my back...I am an auto, I was wondering why I felt so "non-fast", lol.

 

yep sure does

 

Omg thank you guys, at least now I know theres nothing wrong with my engine, lol.

 

Yeah Im just 17, I don't have alot of money but I live in a Civic//Eclipse ricer town, and my only goal in life is to show them up more and more every week...

 

WTF?! What do you have to prove? Acting like that MAKES YOU a ricer.

 

Not like I go looking for a race? They all come to me and my friends wanting to race the slow 4-doors. I have no problem making 20$ here and there :/
