i ordered some of these from rockauto
came real quick and i sent one set to someone on here who used them and worked-you have to bore out the top

i then found a guy in Minnesota that makes a piece that turns the lamda on a right angle to the exhuast so you dont get ground clearance issues like you MAY with spacing it straight out.

that took about 3 weeks to appear, just waiting for the fitters at work to put it on when the pit becomes free

if id known all this before i fitted it i would have ordered these and put it on the exhuast from day 1

has anyone told blueflame? perhaps they can build a spacer into the exhaust at manufacture?

EDIT: although, i doubt they'd care

 

[RikH]

they wouldnt care
this is what i mentionned to you for piper to maybe do
guess they havent

 

[kez]

i mentioned it to piper, but as garry said, they're using 200 cell cats, so it won't be a problem

if it is, i'm sure they'll change the design

Bolox i forgot about that sensor.. There is a guy on VW Vortex than can make them i PMed him.. and forgot to check... ops.. i spose i best check them now

 

[RikH]

Wayne Schmidt is his name
nice guy

 

[Skorchio]

Ill see how this one goes. What you explain what part you need to bore out and does this mean re threading?

My car is quite low. So i might get a problem!

 

[RikH]

If you've been researching the stacked non-fouler mod as well as my angle block, you probably have a good idea of how this works. When you add a high flow cat and larger diameter exhaust, the secondary O2 sensor "sees" more exhaust and
then tattles back to the computer since it thinks something is wrong. By merely pulling the nose of the sensor (secondary--never primary) out of the direct exhaust stream, it basically simulates having the smaller exhaust/OEM cat again. The beauty is that it is a mechanical fix--if it needs to be set back to stock, it can be

with the rockauto bits, the top of the two spacers needs widening about 15mm to take the lamda probe

I don't like the though or boring or drilling the exhaust, is there no straight plugin/bolt on option?.

 

[RikH]

no its the spacer you drill/bore, these then just sit into the lug in the exhuast where the sensor would normally go

 

[lc_allan]

aghhh that aint to bad then. I didn't fancy touching the exhaust if I'd only just bought one. Like you mentioned I'd have liked this sorted from day 1 so no further problems down the line.

i wish we did live in an ideal world alan

You dont need this spacer mod if your planning on stage 2 remap.
