GReddy SP2 concern...
I just put on my GReddy SP2 catback system today. It looks and sounds great! I just have one concern. Right next to the part that conects to the catalytic converter, there's a hole in the pipe that looks like it was made for a sensor to be plugged in or something. The mechanic plugged it with something. Does anyone know what the hole is used for?

how much did it cost u guys to get the SP2 installed, because i was thinking id do it myself, but i dont know how to plug it, and ive heard shops use some kind of goo to seal it, and if the hangers need to be welded,i cant do that either, so just wondering

FYI 97-98 (maybe some 99) have an O2 after the cat.

they told me that they couldn't get my o2 sensor out so it'd be another $160 for the only one around town... i didn't want to pay so i had them chop the new b-pipe and weld it to the s-pipe (o2 curvey pipe) and now it hangs lower and looks like s... i know they lied because the next day i went to another exhaust shop and they took it off with ease!
THEN!!! meinekie put in the curved pipe backwards which made my tip hang way out and crooked from the cutout, and the pipe kept banging against the car...
ot i know... but it still makes me mad!!!
