Default I need to lengthen o2wires

Is there anyway i can buy longer wires for a o2 sensor or subsitute it with a different type of wire...I need this because i got a d15b and the o2 is on the top of the header on the stock one and on the dc sport header i got its on the very end of the down pipe and mine wont reach?

DC sells an extension harness. I've just extended wires using some wire and solder and it works fine.

does it matter if you dont use a shielded wire for the heater wires? what gauge would you use? 18?


make sure you solder the connections, and if possible use heatshrink over the solder instead of electrical tape, its just cleaner

make sure you modify the o2 harness not the cars.
