It normally sits by the fuse box. As you can see, it has scars from the battle of taking it out.



300 miles since the headers and no SES!!!



No longer silver colored

 

what's the point of this thread...

 

I got like 15 PMs of people asking about 02 sims and if I was throwing codes and if I extended my secondary 02 sensors etc etc etc. This is an easy way to answer.

 

mine throws codes....but thats because I am an idiot and cut the heater wire too DOH

 

Yeah i'm suprised that I'm not throwing codes... I've been waiting and waiting, expected ses to pop up around 80 miles after the install, but still nothing

 

...ohhhhhhhhhhhhh that's what an o2 sensor looks like....

 

so how does the car drive with headers? Honest opinions please...do you feel power all over?

 

Well the butt dyno will never be accurate and the change in sound also affects my impression so I'll relate the difference I can prove...

Before the headers, when launching on the street near my house, I could floor it in 1st after hooking up with no wheelspin then chirp hard into 2nd.

Now with headers, if I floor it in first after hooking up, it will start to spin above 5k rpms all the way until I shift to second. Second can spin a bit if I shift in really hard, and I've heard 3rd chirp 1 or 2 times.

Basically, I'm saying yes... I can tell/feel a power difference. Now I'm waiting on dyno for real proof of gains.

 

the long header sticky also answers this....

 

If everybody searched for everything before asking each other questions or posting, this would be a dead board with a bunch of 3 yr old threads.

 

good excuse..but not really

 

you need to tune, in first gear at any RPM with my foot to the floor my tires will light up.

 

I've been waiting over 4 years after my header install to throw a code. Still none yet, and I have all 4 O2 sensors before my cat.

 

yep I can't wait to tune, and my tires will light up in 1st now just like you are saying. I'd like to wait and do SSIM+reflash then tune, but I'll go ahead and tune it for now until I can get those things taken care of.

 

 

Regarding original post: I'm diggin everything except that odo reading. I would have driven around another mile to get rid of it.

 

True story. No cat in between my primary and secondary o2 sensors - no codes in over 4 years.

I understand now, and I have the same situation on mine. No secondary code w/o ANY cats
