Whats up people. I did an SR20DET, Red Top, Swap a couple of weeks ago. The Stock Downpipe from the KA was welded to the Cat Converter, so the SR Down pipe wouldn't bolt on unless I did some welding work.

On the good side, the downpipe that came with the clip was a Nismo 3" down pipe. In result, I got Megan Racings 3" straight pipe catback with OE style muffler and dual tip exhaust with their 3" Test pipe. The Test pipe will come in tomorrow and I was reading a bit and came across a question.

Will the O2 sensors trip after installation of the exhaust? Is it a requirement to put in O2 Simulators when installing after market exhaust or only if a CEL is triggered? How often do CEL go off?

If a CEL is triggered, what are the ways to fix it perminitely and if triggered what are the signs I should look for if it did get triggered? (Will there be ECU problems etc.? TIA

The KA O2 sensor won't work with an sr. Check out frsport.com or other sponsors on the right side of the screen for o2 info.
