I'll be getting my new AFR in a few days and have the stock 2.0 exhaust Liestriz. There is no 4 to 1 collector like on an extractor muffler. Can someone give me advice where to install the sensor mount? Do I need to cut a hole in the muffler? Thanks.

Yes, 3 feet (from engine) is the generic distance, maybe place it in the muffler just above one of the exchanger outlets. I used to say it could be put into the tail pipe, but I was wrong, you run a good chance that the sensor will not heat up enough to give accurate readings. A heated sensor doesn't provide enough heat for an accurate reading, it only speeds up the sensor warm-up cycle.
Never leave a disconnected sensor in the exhaust, it will ruin the sensor. The 10 or 2 o'clock angle lets any moisture drain from the sensor when not in use. Standing moisture can also ruin a sensor. |
