O2 sensors and Borla headers

[Tony91Sport]

All right here is another header question...
Is there an opening on the Borla Header set for an O2 sensor?

I just put in a set of Bola Headers and there is a slot on the passenger side.

Does it screw in like the stock one? Dead Link Removed

Tony,

The O2 sensor screws into a bung that is welded to the header assembly just in front of the cat converter. The Borla headers replace everything from the heads to the converter flange. You can install them yourself, do a search on this site there are a few posts about the installation. Drilling would be needed only if one of the existing fasteners is stuck or broken. Get some 6 point sockets and open end wrenches, and tons of penetrating oil. If you've got air even better. Go to it. Take your time. Get some need new converter flange bolts/gasket- I think thats it- Borla kit is complete with all of the other hardware. Working slow should take a day. If your good with a wrench then maybe two-three hours.

Hope this helps

Does the wiring length of the O2 sensor work with Borla headers, or do you need to get longer ones?

on the topic of headers should i go with borla or jba? and what should i coat them for? whats the cheapest place to buy them? so far i found truckperformance.com for like 500, looks like i might try organizing a group buy.

Where did you find the Borla headers? I've been trying to find some for my '95 with no luck.
