Ok.....

First off to correct myself, Maxspeed does have enough mounts for all four (4) O2 sensors on the headers. I misunderstood that. The problem is obvious, there is no cat to in between the two O2 sensors on each header. Tada, CEL!

With that Q&A you gave me from Maxspeed's website they admit that the CEL came on three times in a 3000 mile period. From what anyone can presume it is the above setup that they are running. There is no reason the CEL should not have come on, you have deleted the cats and the exhaust gas is different.

Now, I agree with your statement "The o2 sensor positioning isn't something to be messed with on these cars." but if the car does not know the difference then there is no harm in it. Although, Thats the Big Question here! Isn't it?

I looked at Che's headers and they seem very similar. I wish he, or someone very knowledgeable on the subject would chime in. I may have too much confidence in Maxspeed, but I think they would know their own product. I think if I do what they say, I won't have any problems. *crosses fingers*
