Default Extending stock o2 sensor...

I am in the process of putting my downpipe on for my greddy kit on my 2000 civic EX!The only problem is the the o2 sensor is now right by the turbo instead of the cat like the stock one!Is there a extension harness i can buy or a way i can reroute it to the front where it is located on the downpipe???

what is the open hole on the intake pipe going into the turbo for on the 00 civic greddy kit???

I extended the wires for the secondary o2 sensor since I have a CEL on. I just clipped the wires and bought a couple of 16 gauge wires from autobarn and reconnected them. would it work ?

Wires are wires. Just clip them far enough from the sensor so that you can attach new wires and run them as long as you want to. If you wired up the eManage, I don't see how this would be difficult. :thinking:

not true. they have to be the same gauge wires as stock, or you'll get a resistnce block. you'll have all kinds of problems and risk a short circuit.

I'm in the process of getting the whole EX exhaust system for my 97 Civic DX 4dr.
I just got a DC Sports ceramic header for the EX. Now I have to get a Random Tech. High-flow catalytic converter and Apexi WS catback exhaust. When my mechanic guy installs these parts, he'll let me know if I need to extend the stock O2 sensor. So Casperelectronics is the place to solve that, huh?

DC Sports' headers come with an extention for the wiring from my experience.
