Otherwise the values they return are going to be identical in which case it should throw a check engine light representing a bad cat because it would believe that the cat isn't functioning to change the oxygen content in the exhaust stream.

Looks like a nice install, do you have any dyno charts or performance testing from the car?
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Neil,
I'm curious about the 2 O2 sensors in the headers with no cat in between. Did you disable one of them via ECU tuning? Otherwise the values they return are going to be identical in which case it should throw a check engine light representing a bad cat because it would believe that the cat isn't functioning to change the oxygen content in the exhaust stream. Looks like a nice install, do you have any dyno charts or performance testing from the car?

The conversion takes 2 weeks and has 12 month warrenty

Wow! Dare I ask what the rough ballpark cost of that was? /fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/drivingskid.gif <hr id="quote" noshade="noshade" height="1" />
$22900

Including a 3.8L engine?! Is the engine new or from a wrecked Carrera?

Neil,
Another question for you. Those intake runners that look like aluminum, but are perhaps just painted that way on the 3.8L motor, are they the same exact part that is black on the 3.4L motor, just a different color, in other words could you swap them if you wanted aluminum look instead of black?
Man oh man, you've got a real sleeper there. Love the basically stock look with just a hint of something going on. $22K is not bad either. Is there a warranty?
