Icon6 T1R: catalytic converter

Does any1 have experience with this product? testpipe
http://www.aj-racing.com/shop/produc...cat=421&page=2

It doesn't include the secondary O2 sensor bung, and wondering what people do with it?
Not sure if other Cat's are similar. But wouldnt it throw codes for not having the O2 sensor hooked up?

Also what are some options for header choice that are compatible with this product?

thanks

It's only difference between it and any other Ebay test pipe is that it's resonated to keep noise down. It says as much in the product description. If your car requires a second O2 you'll need to get a bung welded in somewhere and even then you might still trip a code for catalyst efficiency.

Lookie here.

yeah just did a quick search and will have to weld a bung on.

Now do i just plug-play my sensor into that? or should i use this...

Does this product take the place of a bung or just connect to it?

thanks

that screws into the bung then your o2 sensor screws into it. in my experience, those defoulers are hit or miss.

I have one of the T1R converters on my swapped civic. Great quality. Had it for about a year or so and no issues. I do remember when I ordered it I got to choose between the JDM size or USDM size. I think the JDM one is 12" and the USDM 17" (dont quote me on that).

Just make sure you dont over-tighten the bolts. The flange is pretty thin. I bent mine a little when I installed it.
