PPE Headers going on Today....
I think i paid like 973 for the headers ceramic coated and the high flow cats. Install was 240 but I had a bad o2 sensor so i had to buy one of those and they are not cheap. Paul at PPE said to put in the extenders even though i put the high flow cats in so i did. I went with the PPE high flow cats since I have the Joe Z race and would have been catless.. Ill post vids as soon as i can
Well, it lasted about 30 miles, then bam, I threw codes. VSC, Check Engine, and Tracking control light all on. We did everything just like PPE said too. Droping back off tomm, hope its a easy fix. If anyone has any inputs of what to check, i would apprec. Thanks
did u ask Paul for the new 02 sensor stimulator ? come with the ppe header ? u dont have to drill or weld ? all the new ISF does it.... mine is on the way .. no longer need the extension and the bungs .....

Hope it works out, this was the reason I held off on doing them. Let us know what the answer is and let's document the steps so everyone knows exactly what to do to fix this.
Thanks for being first on this one again.

I'm not sure how the High-Flow cats affect the O2 sensor extender workaround. I have no cats and the solution works just fine (i.e. no CELs).
Put some more miles on your headers and see if that clears things up. There's no harm to the car with the lights on.

Blitz , mine did not come with O2 Simulators, Paul at PPE said the company he uses is super backordered.. But i do think i found the solution.

better be safe ah,
Had to chime in and say im really liking these headers, the car feels like it wants to go faster at take off and i swear it has more torque. Others chime in and let me know where you are feeling the most power gains?

I had that same error code (obviosly without headers). It was bank 2 O2 sensor that needed replaced. Lexus wanted like $600 for it. I made them fix it for free because my car was in for a recall the day before, I picked it up and the light was on. Is it possible the O2 sensor was damaged during installation?
