IMO, they put that bung at the wrong angle. This is not a safe way to run it. Mine is vertually horizontal on my T1R test pipe.
You should look into installing a right angle adaptor.

Wow, good thing my friend turned me to this thread. This gives me hope for someday (when I have money) of running the J's 70RR, but I'm still worried about the popo catching me in cali w/o a cat.

i agree with viper...better to redo your bung and plug up the current one than to break your O2 sensor...LOTS cheaper too

Since we do not have those magis "anti-faulers" here in Dubai, I just went to a exhaust shop and let the guy weld a pipe in 90deg. angle to the test pipe.5000KM done, so far no CEL.

I would like to thank the s2k community for sharing this great info
And if anyone wants to know if you will have a different sound...oh YES you will, you will backfire and hear those pretty racing car sounds..i love it

as long as it takes the sensor out of the direct flow from the exhaust, and posses some sort of restriction to the gases, then yes, it should work...

anybody familar with electrical systems, this basically works like a shunt, taking a sampling of the gases then giving it to the sensor to see

Tell me something...

Am going to fit the Invidia Exhaust this week. Will I have any problems with the O2 Sensor?

No, a "cat-back" exhaust won't affect the O2 sensor in such a way. This sensor monitors the catalytic converter function. As long as you still have it in place, it should be OK unless you damage something during the exhaust installation.

I got my T1R exhaust and T1R testpipe a few days ago, and did this mod as well, however the O2 sim is about 3 inches from the ground now
