Any word on the size of this pipe.

hartley1080 · 02-27-2012, 04:23 PM

Just measured the pipe it is 2.25 O.D.

ID or OD?

Wow how about google that shit

1.5 · 02-27-2012, 09:28 PM

True im looking more for ID.

hartley1080 · 02-27-2012, 11:10 PM

Will check the I.D. soon

Is that how that website works? I always get so confused when I get there. lol

47_MasoN_47 · 02-28-2012, 01:37 PM

It can be confusing. So many steps in the process :P

Thanks for the link

Just installed this OBX on my 07 LB and now I have a little bit of ping going on. I put one of the 2 Cats back in (after the O2 sensor) and figure that's the problem. Let me know if I should put the other Cat in or move the O2 sensor to after the Cat.???

Since both O2 sensors are basically seeing the same thing now I would guess I'm right with the location thing. just want a second opinion.

cali yaris · 03-06-2012, 12:03 PM

Stock location is after the first cat.
So the 2nd cat doesn't matter at all as far as the ECU is concerned.

If you have one cat, the second O2 sensor should be after that.

I'm surprised you aren't getting a CEL with both sensors seeing basically the same thing. Your car should be thinking your cat is not working.

07stlYaris · 03-06-2012, 12:22 PM

Got the CEL too, just didn't mention it. I'll be relocating the O2 sensor this weekend when I put in the resonator. Thanks for the quick reply and reaffirmation of my suspicions. Would the ECU lean out the mix because of what the 2nd O2 sensor sees?

Bluevitz-rs · 03-06-2012, 04:09 PM

The first sensor isn't an O2 sensor, it's a A/F sensor. The second is indeed an O2 and is only there to read what's coming out of the CAT.

cali yaris · 03-06-2012, 05:28 PM

Just keeping it simple. I knew he must be getting a CEL.

07stlYaris · 03-07-2012, 11:19 AM

Are they both the same thing just used for different purposes? Are there any other consequences to moving the O2 sensor further downstream? Should I wrap the headpipe to keep the cat warmer? Just trying to get as much info as possible before I get under there one more time.

cali yaris · 03-07-2012, 12:17 PM

^ The two sensors are not the same. Technically, the first one is more of an air/fuel sensor (though it's kind of a weird hybrid design by the way the ECU reads the voltages) and the second one is an O2 sensor to monitor the cat. Pretty sure that's all it does.

Why would you move it downstream?
And why would you want it to be "warmer"?

07stlYaris · 03-07-2012, 12:44 PM

Downstream past the Cat. Catalytic converters function better at higher temps leading to a more accurate reading for the O2 sensor. Higher temps within reason of course. I've seen melted catalyst in engines that ran waayy too lean. Anyway, thanks for the clarity on the sensors.
