Did you have any problems with the mating of the mid-pipe? Someone out there had a source for a custom extension for the sensor. Can't remember who though. Been really considering getting this so I can add my header but waiting till the bugs are finally gone.

What some people have done is have the muffler shop weld a tight 90deg bung on the pipe which will then allow you to stack the two extenders without the sensor coming in contact with anything below. The wire is just barely long enough.

so....then 1 wont work?

whooppee777 · 10-28-2008, 03:46 PM

E-mail this guy wayne92slc@yahoo.com he makes a piece that will move the o2 sensor far enough away from the gasses to the point where it doesnt set a CEL. he has them in stock $38 shipped. i will be ordering mine next week

Klink10 · 10-28-2008, 03:56 PM

Thanks Whooppee....saving that for later

at3GG · 10-28-2008, 05:10 PM

To any who have the nitto, when you removed your stock mid, did you have a problem "unscrewing" the o2 sensor? I tried to remove it to wrap the midpipe with thermal wrap and it sun a couple of times then just seemed to wedge where it was. Anyone else have this happen?

To those with a custom midpipe...if i bring my car to have a custom mid made, should i assume that there will be no CEL issues or should i inform them of the issue? Also around how much did it run you guys? Thanks.

Malaya1221 · 10-28-2008, 06:18 PM

jerkratt, need to use both of those defoulers...been using the defouler now for 1 week after i installed a new header, NO CEL!

kuro, u might just want to wait until the ecu relearns!

The CEL is NOT an issue...

Is just the sensor doing it's job.

The function of the sensor behind the primary cat is to monitor the adecuate functionality of the cat converter.
When you remove / delete the cat converter the sensor obviously will sence a cat failure and throw a CEL.

The Nitto midpipe is a catless unit threfore it will trigger the CEL.

When you say you are going for a custom mide pipe are you planning to go catless also? If so you will have a CEL and you will need one of the already mentioned CEL fixes.

If you keep your cat or install a new cat to the custom midpipe you should be alright and will not need any fix.

Just my recomendation:

Keep the cat... the gains for going catless should be minimal on this engine. Just ask your shop to make your midpipe from the cat back...

Malaya1221 · 10-28-2008, 10:57 PM

^ didn't even notice that u only used one of them....yeah the other one might help!

besides that i do believe EVERYONE experiences a CEL with the defouler eventually.on the other hand the soldering of the wires looked to be a good deal though........
