I'm just trying to figure out which headers i wasnt to get. I was looking at racing beat but from what i found they do not have smog & engine management sensors hook ups. and I want that one my exhaust. so i was looking at some headers that pacesetter makes, it's on ebay. heres is the link if any one has some advide please repond thanks

Throw down the extra money for the Racing Beat one. The pacesetter is made solid, but the Racing Beat one is well designed for RX-7s. It will give you more power. Ive had the Pacesetter header for 2 years now, and it is still holding up fine, but still go for the Racing Beat.

 

but what do i do, because racingbeats headers don't have a place for the sencr that goes into the header like that stock on does. so what do you do about that. thanks

 

my o2 sensor isn't hooked up and i have no problems. however, u will probably have trouble passing emissions and your fuel mileage may go down.

 

so what happens to the sensor? you can just bypass it and wheres the wire go?

 

Or you could take it to your local exhaust shop and have them weld on an 02 bung for you. Not complicated........

 

so how do you bypass it and how would it make you gas millage go down

 

since there is no 02 sensor it runs rich basically all of the time. That makes your gas mileage go down. I don't know how you bypass it.

 

What do you mean the Racing Beat headers don't have the O2 hook-ups? I just got one a couple months ago part number 16130 streetable header/collector and it came with extra wire for the O2 hook-up as well as wire stays to keep them out of the way. If you need a hook-up for the 6-port actuation then that's part of the pre-silencer. Are you trying to still run a cat convertor with the header?

 

i have the O2 sensor on the back part of my RB header. just re-route it.

 

my header has a o2 bung it's racing beat

 

There's an RB "Mod" header that has both 6-port line and the O2 bung. I'll link to it.

I have the racing beat headers to a high flow cat on my rebuild and I like them so far.

 

yeah, my RB header has the O2 bung too. got the combo, header/presilencer. good power and look nice too. definitely reccomend.

 

i got a pacesetter on my car i just installed it like 5 days ago i got to tell you my car is loud as ****!!!! also i have it hooked to the stock y pipe and converte but i got apex mufflers the old cat makes it sound knocky but pace setter is nice it fits on perfect

 

The racing beat header does have the O2 sensor bung in it. If you get the race only hear, it doesn't, but an exhaust shop can install one for you at about $20.
Now if your talking about the air pump, You arn't going to find a header that lets you use it. You simply have to throw it away or not get a header.

 

why do you have to take the air pump off. does not make sence to me

 

both of the roadrace headers i have right now have O2 bungs, they also have a bung for an EGT sensor and one came with an adaptor to make 5/6th ports work (a tube that screws into the bung)

 

I'm trying to install my headers. Besides all the other questions, I'll stick to the subject.

My headers have the O2 bung, but it is at the end of my headers, down where they come collected. what kind of wire could I use for my O2 sensor if I was to re-route it?
