Tidgy Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Could be it was, they do get alot of heat on them so can be damaged when removed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SF5Fozzi Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 I would say, the primary concern here is the steering knuckle fouling the downpipe issue. Iv experienced that sort of fouling problem when using cheapo brands. Your either gonna 1. have to marker Pen the area that touches, then take off the pipe and smack it with a hammer & put it back on & keep doing that till it clears, but you risk bending pipe. And it's a load of effort. Or 2. get a quality branded pipe that fits correctly out of the box. Then the running lean issue would be the next issue to sort out. 🤔I would just get a new oem sensor with a new quality brand pipe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
