Have any of you guys that have/had the o2 sensor on the exhaust manifold,
relocated it to the downpipe?

[jhondayaaj]

yup, I do. and when you go h22, I think you have to also.

Why do you say that? My O2 sensor is in the stock location. Can't get it smogged otherwise.

Exactly thats why i relocated, cause of the smog check.
I also remember reading somewhere that ebay header will make your engine
misfire like crazy. unfortunately mine was misfiring due to the o2 only reading
gases from one cylinder.

so i just relocated the o2 to the downpipe, that way it reads gases from all cylinders.
car feels so much better.

my stock location is on the manifold. my car is an lx. I have an f22a4 header and downpipe, making the o2 sensor on the A pipe. that's why I had to extend mine. if your car is an EX already, you don't need to do what I did. unless you want to put an lx exhaust manifold on your car, then you will have to extend it. LOL.
