Tricky-Ricky Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Question for all who have LM-1 etc fitted, where have you mounted your sensor? first or second decat? and have you had any overheat problems? also is there enough space for the sensor to go anywhere on either side of the pipes 3 O'Clock position, with out the risk of fouling body?

SimonB Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Most 2nd decat pipes have a bung in specifically for a wideband sensor. Certainly Chris Wilson's do. As long as it's before any cats that are left it should be fine, although the 1st cat position is a bit hot. I'd go for 2nd cat position definitely.

I thought that it was only CW's UK spec pipes that had the second bung as standard? I got one from him with it in place and use this to mount my innovate sensor. Seems to work just fine.

SimonB Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I think he puts them on all his 2nd decats now. I've got one of his Jspec ones which has one, and my 3inch 2nd decat which is an HKS one I think also has one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted March 22, 2006 Author Share Posted March 22, 2006 I went for a Wifbitz decats as price was a high priority at the moment, having spent all my cash on the Supra;) and they don't have a bung, or i would have probably used that, so i wouldn't need to ask, i take it that there are no Clerence issues mounting it at 9 o'clock or 3 o'clock?

SimonB Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Here's a photo from mkiv.com showing where the sensor bung is on a HKS pipe. You want it at an angle so it's pointing slightly down rather than completely horizontal as that stops condensation gathering on the sensor tip.

Tricky-Ricky Posted March 22, 2006 Author Share Posted March 22, 2006 Thanks for the pics:thumbs: quite a lot of space then! also saves me starting to fit the decats and having to stop and weld in a bung, now i can just pic my spot and get it done before hand:) That cable looks a bit close to the propshaft:blink: how someone cable tied it out the way!
