long tubes glowin red hott!! need help

[coupe5ohh]

ok so today i fired my car up after installing my tfs1,cam,longtubes,1.6rr,cobra upper and lower with 1in spacer..and my passenger side long tube started glowing red hot...they didnt get red all at the same time it was cylinder 4-2-3-1 in that order during my cam break in...any idea why it would do that? the driver side stayed fine..thx guys

timing

you are running very rich! adjust your timing...

Cam shouldn't need any break in, but I always heard lean conditions made headers glow?

ok cause my 02 sensors arent hooked up due to not having extenders so im getting those today..

 

[Addermk2]

next time, dont run the car without the O2's

 

[coupe5ohh]

Should I jus plug them in and let them hang? Bcuz I need to get my car home and it's a 20 mile drive

your timing is too retarded

Thx but what would cause just the 1-4 cylinders to do it? Bcuz it didn't do it on the drivers side only passenger

just make sure you have all the parts before tackling the project. Not worth damaging something.

id lean towards no... i dont know how much o2s and o2 extentions are for 5.0s, but for 4.6s they can get up to $75.00 each... + $20.00 each for extensions...

should you let $200.00 hang out the bottom of the car? no.

also, it will only send false/bizzar signals to your computer. you dont want your engine getting information from sensors hanging out.

*if* you have to drive home. do not plug in the o2s that would just hang.
i suggest calling a buddy with a trailor and bringing it home for proper assembly.

sounds like its reaching dangerous situations just idling, let alone under throttle... . . :-/

it wasnt idiling it was being help at 2k rpm..and the o2 sensors are 39.99 for a set so i orderd em and my new xpipe frm summit so they will be here tomorrow so ill go throw em in and see what happens

Why would you need O2 extensions, can't you just cut the wires and make them longer?

retarded timing as previously stated
