So,. . . My header/muffler system on my shop-car works flawlessly and actually sounds really good too. However, I REALLY love the sound of the Porsche banana can muffs. So I'm thinking of converting my shop-car to a banana can muffler. Switching could also eliminate the occasional dragging of the muffler coming out of steep parking lots. The big issue though is where would I end up mounting the O2 bung so it will read correctly?? I'm thinking that with a muffler like this one below, over on the right side (closest end) near the end would be a good spot. . . What say you??

On the outlet, as hidden as possible, but must be mounted between 9 and 3 o'clock. Best is at 12. This will get mix of all the exhaust to sample and keep water and condensation from damaging the sensor. BTW, use a wide band...
