using o2 sensor hole for backpressure reading
has anyone used the o2 sensor hole for using back pressure to operate the 5th and 6th ports. i am currently running a freeflowing exhaust, and i want to remove the airpump. has anyone done this or is it too hot, or will the exhaust from the hole just pump into the the ports? thanks
i really dont want to do that eletric air pump conversion i ve seen. thanks a lot

RacingBeat used to run a small line right off the most fwd exhaust port to feed the aux ports. Visit their site to see if they still do that.
It was a long small dia tube, whtich meant it was cooled down on it's end where a hose was connected. See their site.

Go to HI PERF EXHAUST SYSTEMS and click around. It's there.

While it works fine for a stock car, it's a terrible method for a modified car where reducing backpressure is the goal. There's no way to make them open at the correct point in the rev range. They'll open later than they should, mean a loss of potential mid-range performance. I s'pose it's better than wiring them open though...
