hey guys...I have one final question before ordering parts....I have a 96 hx and need a new cat/exhaust manifold to pass inspection...I think im going to buy an aftermarket header and a universal carsound obd2 compliant cat. I know I'll have to extended the secondary o2 sensor but I need to know if I do this will it throw a code. I don't have emissions where I live but it won't pass with a check engine light. any help is appriciated

 

well if the problem is the cat then yes it will. But if they don't do emissions then just pull the bulb for your test.

 

So itll throw a code even if I change the cat and mainfold?...thanks for the help man

 

you should be o.k.

 

thats what I am hoping...I'm just hoping that the header wont mess up my primary o2 cause the 5 wire o2 for my hx is like almost $400....so has anyone out there thrown a code because they relocated the secondary o2?

 

One final thing...If i put a new cat on it and it still throws a po240 code and I pull the bulb for the check engine light...will it affect the way my car performs in anyway? because doesnt the secondary only measure the cats emissions output?...thanks alot

 

bump anyone please?
