ok. so my UPR O/R Xpipe came in the other day and im gonna get it installed @ the beginning of the the week. just wondering if im going to need extensions or elims for the o2 sensors or if i can just cork the holes up that they go in. my "check engine" light is already on. its on most of the time but will randomly go away 4 a little bit. thanks for any help

my o2 sensors fit fine on my upr x alll the parts come with it ....the passenger side is a PITA

....if you wanna spend the extra money and get MIL eliminators, be my guest but IMO they suck ....i have them on my car and my CEL always comes on

what do you mean cork the wholes ?

they should reach no problem, if they don't, call UPR and get a new pipe .....

i dont think you can run without o2 plugged in ....

and i think you'd have to weld over the old whole and drill and tap a new one for the o2s

Get it installed, and go get a tune and get your rear 02's shut off. and jsut leave them plugged in and installed in the pipe and be done.

SCT Xcal. Im not sure if you can do it yourself but i know if you get it tuned then you will be alright and they can shut off your egr, rear o2's and other stuff as well as adjust and make the vehicle run better
