Long tube header question

[bklyn_tap]

I want to buy the obx long tube headers and was wondering if I would have any issues connecting it to my current set up. I have a bbk xpipe connected to my mrt v2 exhaust. Will I have any problems making this work? Anything else I need? I don't have much knowledge on the 02 sensor issue throwing a cel either so what can I do to prevent the cel?

Your sensors should throw a code because of the increase in air in the cats but a tune will take care of that...also a couple of o2 extensions are a good idea to have

After installing my headers I didn't get a code...not even after giving several hundred miles to give it time to get a cel but idk . Maybe you'll get lucky op

Maybe my install thread of OBX headers will help?

Since the x-pipe you have right now bolts up to your stock cats I don't see why it won't bolt up to the OBX cats and headers. I would recommend a resonated X-pipe instead of a true X-pipe though. You will get less rasp.

For the CEL most need a tune and that's the end of it.

That would be nice if I didn't get a cel at all!

I plan on having off road headers which is what I believe is the only option for obx so it won't have any cats. Tune it is then
