He's in the middle of some chassis modification and some body work. I've been putting together a picture biography with before, during and after photos as well as audio and video clips. Sometimes I slack a bit about getting it done though

I'd like to see a turbo charged accord anyday. I'd turbo my car if only it wasn't an automatic. My next car will definitely be a stick and I'm going to spend a lot more money towards that car performance wise.

Also another thing about the OBX header. I realized that the O2 sensor does not "utilize factory position" like most eBay auctions say it does. You need to extend your O2 sensor all the way to the bottom of the flexpipe (on 6th generation accords as far as I know). And the OBX header does not come with an extension, but it comes cheap. I know DC Sports does come with an extension though, but not worth paying double the price. OBX is very good for the value.

In the 5th gen Accords, the o2 sensor is after the catalyic convertor. It doesnt have a flex pipe between the headers and cat. The o2 sensor will be stretched to reach the pipes right out of the exhaust manifold ports.

I think you misspoke there. Fifth gens are mine and yours, 94-97, and the o2 sensor is definitely before the cat, its on the manifold, as you said in the last sentence there.

It has two o2 sensors![8D] One in the manifold, and one at the end of the cat. Hey, long time no talk btw!

A thought just occured to me. Yours probably has two because its OBD-II, and mine is older and only OBD-I.
