re-re question

okay so im going to sound like a complete idiot who doesnt know anything about cars but i was looking at a header/dp combination and i noticed 2 bungs, one in the header and one in the downpipe, i know i have a stock o2 sensor coming out the header but do i also have one in the downpipe?? or is the 2nd bung in the DP for a wideband?

You've got two 02 sensors. One in the header, one in the downpipe behind the catalytic converter.

the one on bottom is hard to see from just looking under the car. you need to get under it to see it well.

alright. so if u hook up a wide band you need to have 3 total bungs? where do you put the bung in for the wideband? im lookin at some aftermarket headers and downpipes right now to go with my catback.

Put it on the dp somewhere. Some companies you can order it to have an extra bung welded for your wideband of your could take it to any auto shop and they should be able to cut a hole and weld the bung on for you where you wanted.

Make sure the wideband bung is IN FRONT of your catalytic converter or you're gonna get a fucked up AFR...
