o2 sensor too close???
Is this too close, i can't get the wires much further away than this.. its an innovate LC-1
the only way i can get more distance is by removing the bracket that holds the exhaust.. but then i won't be able to keep the exhaust still!
and as a bonus question for you PF'ers.. anyone know how the metal adaptor plate that goes between the thermostat housing on an RS, seals to the block?! can't see any gaskets for it on microcat or ebay?!
Cheers!

Well this is a decat pipe bought with the bung pre-welded on. it's for a focus RS and i have all the correct focus RS exhaust turbo bits.. I can't work it out!
Further down the decat pipe there's a bracket almost like it should sit on the block somewhere but it's about 2 inches from even touching the block.
Further down is definately better!

For a wideband it needs to be further than that. If it was a factory standard narrow band it would be fine, as they need heat to operate.
Remember, some tuners will put a wideband up the tailpipe to map a car and get the right readings!!

first thing use the post cat bung for the innovate.ive got my plx afr o2 sensor in that one.would you not need the first one for the lambda sensor anyway?
the adaptor plate has a rubber seal on it iirc. id reuse that and see how it goes.if not carpartsexpress can supply you with a new seal and even use some sealer with it
your stuff was posted today mates so should be with you tomorrow or friday

Just weld a bung in a more suitable location.
Or slightly more obscure...

Yeah that's good, the post cat bung isn't that far from where you have yours in fairness!
