Nice. Did the same on my 350 with Takeda. Sounds great / clean.

I have the 90 degree fitting you recommended but couldn't install it without uninstalling the downpipe, so I purchased a couple straight adapters with a similar size opening for the down stream. I'm hoping this works. I don't really want to drive around with the CEL on.

Tried a new o2 adapter today...drove 100 miles and no CEL.

Still have a 2 piece 90 degree adapter coming as a back up to try.

Currently I'm running: Injen Short Ram Intake, PPE Downipe (decatted)

I'm expecting my BMS Stage 1 tune this week, in addition I'd like to maybe add a charge pipe and turbo muffler delete.

I had a smaller O2 spacer which still gave me a CEL so i ended up adding that 90 degree spacer on top and haven't had any issues since with or without a tune.

Yeah I have a 90 degree spacer like yours, but I can't install it without removing the downpipe again, so I went the lazy route and tried some other o2 sensors. So far I have 2 that have been working. Crossing my fingers I found a winner. Hoping my tune comes in this week!

No more CEL...for now

Looking into midpipes now. I don't think I want a full exhaust, anyone have any sound clips of midpipes with the stock axle back?

Most will just post a thread of their DIY whatever mod. There is not a permanent DIY sub-thread in the RC forums that I know of. I agree though things have been a little quite for the past month or so.

PPE Downpipe still going strong, no CEL.

Now searching for a decent sounding midpipe!

Anyone with an Invidia midpipe on an RC200T or RC300 turbo? I need reviews.
