me and a buddy did the install one mine and the instructions say that, unless i am reading wrong, that there should be 3 O2 sensors. im not sure if the 07's are different but i could only find 2. anyone that has the headers for the sedan, can you help out with this? where does the bung plug need to be? thanks guys.

well as far as i could see myself theres only 1 sensor dat could go to the adapter but since i have a custom made exhaust without cat it wazant necessary for me to use it. i believe the kit comes with a bolt to cover one of the holes on the adapter try to use it and see if it helps. and for people with custom downpipes use a flexible because the backpressure would most likely damage the piping and most likely snap off

el_blacky06 : Did you get SES Light when you removed the cat? Did you reallocate the O2 senser?

Cuz I'm going to do custom exhaust this week direct from header till the end and I'm planning to remove the cat, but I don't want to get SES light.?

just the sensor problem and another thing is the headers it turns out after u tighen the bolls theres a small gap between the headers and the downpipe so it causes a ratling noise when u step on the gas so it needs a gasket to cover the gap

itz not much improvement maybe at the most 5hp for the downpipe plus another 8 to 10hp for the exhaust. the good thing is itz a bit more gain and u could backfire which is cool for me
