thats a good question... i would say if you were going to put a cat on it but obviously you wouldnt do that with this manifold... so the top one could be EGT... and the bottom a wideband o2??

thats kinda what i have for my turbo set up. the place where the stock 02sensor was supposed to be with the hahn kit i put an egt probe in it then put the wideband in the spot on the down pipe for the downstream o2 sensor... just some thoughts...

happy tuning

I've got the short tube version of this header.. and I'm pretty happy with it.. but it also has the 2 o2 sensor spots about 6 inches away.. definitely not going to work properly with the stock sensor setup, thats why im running the non-fouler mod right now for the downstream... this header actually looks pretty decent and its cheap too.. i dunno, i might have to pick this header up.. since its a lot cheaper then most other stainless lth's.

he has a look alike... I think he is in Canada... so he would have a Chrysler, and his garage says 2000, so that is what the whole LE thing means.

as far as i know there are lots of ppl on here with lth's and cat converters.. so im guessing its possible.. but im thinking, A: its going to take a lot longer to heat up.. being that much farther from the motor.. And B: like you said.. just need to make the lower o2 sensor wires longer.. or unplug and live with the CEL.

yeah really.. most ppl hate on obx stuff.. but in all honesty, thier headers are great quality, robotic tig welded, and are full stainless.. mine looks just like it did when i bought it.. minus the blue/purple effect from the extreme heat.. think ill be saving up for thise header in the near future.. trans swap first tho.

I have a " look alike".... that fuel rail cover cleans up the engine bay, and eventualy, it will truly be a high output :twisted:
