Default new to the scene...

so i've posted a few times before and i haven't got any replies really..so here i go again, and try it out. so, i've had the eg for a little over a year, and haven't done really anything to it except tear it up from a stop sign. doing all the body work myself. i'm looking at getting a new set of headers cause mine are just...well...shitty. i was wondering if i've got 2 O2 sensors or just one. it's a 95 civic dx. that's.....pretty much all i know, i'm tryin to learn everything i can right now, and i'm saving up for either an h22 or b16a. a buddy of mine is pressuring me into getting the b16a cause he said h22 is underheavy and i'll run off the road tryin to make a curve.

i've also purchased a obx "test pipe" which the little bastard on eBay said it was a catalytic converter, had a picture on eBay of a catalytic converter. and....i received it and it was a test pipe, so, i'm in the process of ordering a REAL high flow catalytic converter and a set of headers. my mechanic said i should go stainless or ceramic. i don't know which one is better and i also need to know how many oxygen sensors i have, 1 or 2...so please help. thanks

ceremic or stainless steel does not matter. and one 02 sensor or 2 o2 sensor depends on what year your civic is

you have one O2 sensor, because your car is OBD1. cars 96+ (OBD2) have at least two O2 sensors, one monitoring the exhaust to allow the computer to control fuel mixture, and one to monitor the catalytic converter performance for emissions purposes. as for the ebay thing, it's probably not a good idea. most of the time you'll end up with something way less than you expected.

I am pretty sure that you only have one o2 sensor.
