Ahh yes you are correct... I didn't have resonators, so I thought they were in the "y-pipe" portion.

Is it possible to do what I drew up in the picture to trick the post cat sensors so it doesn't throw a code? Or is that impossible? Just an idea.

If I follow your diagram you just want to put a bypass in the downpipe that has a cat in it and then place the sensor post cat?

Pretty much.

For what it's worth I do not have any sensors disabled and have been running the BP kit for over a year. I have thrown a faulty cat code one time only and cleared it and it never came back. We don't have the "sniffer" test where I live, just scans the ECU.

We scan the ECU here too in IL. The problem is that if it shows that the post cat sensors are turned off, it's a automatic fail.

It's entirely possible that setup will work. The only hiccup I see is if there would be enough diverted flow to make the sensor happy. Flow is always going to follow the path of least resistance.

I really think it's just something that would have to be tried out.

It would probably be a $500+ experiment to give it a shot.

If you don't have to pass the sniffer test, just ECU, why not use O2 simulators?

KaienZ34 02-25-2014 10:33 PM

No testing or even a look under the hood or car, too bad I haz no boost. :crying:

No testing or anything like that here. Although I did get a ticket for inadequate fenders as my wheel setup is very aggressive and the side walls of my tires stick out like an inch due to the stretched tire.

O2 Spacer - Oxygen Sensor Spacer - CEL / MIL Fix - Oxygen O2 Sensor Adapter - O2 Sensor Extender

I'm not very familiar with them but apparenly you screw this inbetween the existing bung and O2 sensor

I wonder if it will wonder considering these will be sitting in the headers between the engine and turbo.

Smart Oxygen Sensor Simulator o2 simulator [smart_o2sim] - $95.00 : O2simulator Authority

This is the route I'll be going if I can't get cats on. We also switched to the scanned test for emissions, so the need for cats is not really needed. The only reason I would want to have a cats on is to prevent an MTO agent giving me a hefty fine for not having cats on the car...
