Default Long tube headers
Hey guys. I just bought some long tubes from ISR. My factory o2 sensors do not reach. Is there anyone that sells extenders. Or had anyone cut and added wire to their o2 sensors to make them longer?

I run the OBX-R long tube headers, I had to cut and solder the wiring with about 6 inches of wire each to extend the length to reach the o2 port. It's easy.

My PPE came with extenders. You might contact them to see if they sell separately

As figured everyone’s answer was about the same about extending. I plan on extended it myself. Should I extend it from the sensor or cut the engine wiring harness and extend that?

I would extend the sensor side, once you cut your harness theirs no going back.

I used some crazy box connection on mine, if I remember correctly they need some air flow around then or something.




Don't know if you can tell from the pic but theirs some big *** box connectors on my 02 sensor wires.

sounds good. I assume cutting the engine wiring harness would be bad and it would be better to cut the o2 sensor and extend the wires!
