?? tried to install it today with a 17.5in test pipe and didnt work - was roughly 3.5 inches off

apparently the thermal b-pipe is shorter than the OEM or Mugen b-pipe

HELP!!! and should i just go to a shop an have them fab me one on the spot?

 

also, my 98 GSR has two o2 bungs one in the front and one tilted in the back.

when i have ANOTHER test pipe made, should i keep both o2 locations. i am running a p28 ecu on hondata s200b and i dont want to throw a CEL.

if i shouldnt keep the rear, what do i do with it?

thanks, REALLY need some help

 

apparenlty the thermal is shorter than normal - but by how much?

anyone have a thermal on their teg/gsr?

first of all if your using hondata, you only need 1 o2 sensor, the other o2 bung can be used for a wideband... because your using an obd1 ecu.

i doubt anyones going to know what the legnth of the test pipe should be. because of the combination of your downpipe and exhaust. just either measure it up yourself, or have one fabbed up to your specs needed.

 

i understand that since im OBD1 that i only NEED one o2 sensor. but is there a way to detatch the second o2 sensor so its not just hanging there? id rather just have a bung for it than have it hanging

 

need to know about the second o2

 

unplug it.

 

Im running on hondata with no o2 sensor, it work fine.

 

where does it unplug from?

no one knows how much shorter the thermal is than the oem b pipe?

 

 

see were the wires go there should be a blue pulg there pop it off and unplug it. simple.

 

the one in the back just does up from underneath the car, through a small opening - about dime or penny size

 

from my "measurements" the test pipe should be ~21 1/4 inches long does that seem right?

 

I believe Thermal makes their 3" exhaust for 2 door and 4 door models......they are different.


Just get an exhaust shop to fab up the extension you need or a new test pipe.

 

the 4-door one would have been longer on my 2-dr. also the part number is correct for a 2 door

 

The 94-99 gsrs' b-pipes are about 3.5 inches longer than all the other 94-01 2 dr integras, so I'm assuming Thermal made sent you a LS application. The b-pipe for my 01 GSR is about 17-18 inches long.

 

Just buy all the parts you'll need and take it to a shop or a member/friend that has a chop saw and a welder. You'll need to flare the testpipe for it to bolt to the 3" flange the thermal has.

 

looks like i wil be having it extended tomorrow

so i will be okay with one o2 sensor on my obd1 p28 ecu

what do i do with the second one, i dont see anywhere to detach it. - could it just be zip tied out of the waY?

 

just unplug it, just follow the sensor wires, it should go through a small hole into the cabin w/ a rubber cover in the middle. Remove the rubber plug and unplug the sensor. You might want to keep it in a safe place just in case you need it down the road. good luck

 

so ill have to remove it from inside my car (cabin)?

while i was under the car, there was no way my fingers could get through the hole to unplug it

PICS PLEASE!!!!!!!!

 

you can pull on the wires and the plug should come out...from under the car

 

ill try that - i just would be afraid to break anything

 

if you have to pull it out - how would i be able to reconnect it in the future if necessary?

 

pull the connecter through the hole, then if you need it again just plug it in...its really simple, just go do it

its not going to break

 

alright thanks a lot guys - ill let you know how it turns out tomorrow
