Sorry ya' all, I should've specified- it's a Gen, '99.
It's got a PC 3 & my (car) mechanic mate was looking at it, (the PC3) & was thinking that it would only work 100% if it had an O2 sensor connected to it so that it could read how lean/rich the gasses were on the way out. I'm not a mechanic but will certainly be printing out all your thoughts & taking it down to him for another chat over a few ales on Fri night. Thanx for giving me an excuse to stand in a garage & rah on a Fri eve!
I think he was saying that without the O2 then the PC3 would be guessing somewhat thus, it wouldn't be perfect across the the whole rev range. At the end of the day, he said it is all a bit of a compromise otherwise we'd all be riding something with the factory power of Rossi's weapon.
He offered to jam his computer rod up my Busa's pipe, (arse) to show me how it would be leaning/riching out at different rpm.
It's all (bloody interesting) news to me so any more thoughts are much appreciated.
Finally, did'nt the original exhaust system have an O2 sensor in them or am I dreaming?
Also, how do I post a new thread?
Anyhow, check out the link below for an awesome '99er
