where do i put the 02 spacer?

[Azeroth]

just got my 034 02 sensor spacer and it looks like there's two places where a sensor (or a cord, whatever it is) is connected into the tp. one of them is reachable, kind of exposed towards the front of the tp. and the other is farther back, and looks like i can only get to it if i take off the tp. at which of these locations do i put on the 02 sensor? thanks.

The one further back.

The one further back.

Yeep, the rear one, you put it in the rear!!!

the 1 after the cat like these guys say, now it may take a day or so for the CEL to come on if it didn't work, if there is a problem the CEL wont come on right away, atleast mine didnt. It took a good day for my cel to come on, i had a spacer but it wasn't a nice 1 like 034's. Please post back and let us know if that spacer works just to let the community know if that shit works or not. I'm under the impression that it wont work but who knows, they could have something good goin on and it might work lol.

I'm using this one from 42draftdesigns with the VMR tp. Getting installed on Tuesday next week so I'll let you know if I get a light. Hopefully not....

ya i've heard about some people not working, but i was under the impression that it was a good spacer. always heard mostly good things, and a lot of people that used it. i'm hoping mine is gonna work just fine, i'll let you know

Figure if I get the light I'll have it shut off via the APR tune planned for November.

About to install my 034 HFC today, real excited to finally hear the exhaust :)

I finally got my spacer from 034 (thanks for adding the USPS shipping option, guys!). Is this something that the car needs to be up on ramps or not? Should I use loctite?

here's a follow up question to the original post: why is it the back location instead of the front? why would it matter?

I'm running GIAC software and the 034 space works.....2 weeks now and no CEL. I did not use loctite but I highly suggest you use hi-temp anti-seize.

Joshd2012, you may be able to install the spacer through the engine bay. I installed my O2 sensor this way but the spacer I installed while I had the DP and Cat out. If you can get the O2 sensor out then I don't see a reason why this shouldn't work........I have a manual tranny though so I have a bit more working room....prob have to remove the airbox to gain more working room.

Any tips on how you managed to install the spacer with the exhaust still on? I'm probably going to have to tackle that same job soon.. Looking from the top of the engine bay it doesn't seem possible but I'd love to be proven wrong!

because the one before the cat takes the"original" measurements of the CO2, and then the one after the cat will take the measurements and compare. So with the cat on youll have less CO2 coming out by the second sensor which is after the cat. And if your measurements are the same it will throw a CEL

Correct me if im wrong

Excellent, I will have to look under the hood and see what my options are. I have a manual, and removing the airbox shouldn't be difficult if I need the extra space (already have a Carbonio in there). Thanks for the info!
