Does anyone know what gauge wire to use and any specifics would be great.

If anyone has done this before would be curious to know how it went and if you had any issues with thrown codes. Though I would imagine it could just be inaccurate readings due to the hi-cell cats (if that's the route you took)
I have the whole kit I used when I had headers on my Boxster including heat shielding to cover the O2 wires. I'll sell it for $ 35.

Do you have any pics of this setup? I'd consider it.

The only picture I have of the install is from the after cat where you can see the black cable of OEM O2 sensor going up and connecting to extension plug (far-) behind the exhaust hanger on here.


I used zip-ties to keep the cables away from the exhaust and attached tidy at the car undercarriage.

Looks good. I am convinced this is the right way now. Only issue is that 1-928-403-453 seems to be on backorder from the sites i've visited. Still searching...

Here it is 2 brass anti-foulers, more wire heat shield than you will need & a old o2 sensor to mock up were you want to position everything.
