Just wonder what other JDM owner do with the heat sensor/probe in the stock catalytic converter when you switch to a midpipe or aftermarket catalytic converter.

Some JDM high flow cats have a provision for that sender. Or, you could weld a fitting for it into a high flow cat that doesn't have that provision.

All things considered that system isn't terribly necessary or useful. It's not like cats go out all the time and you have to keep your eye on it.

Thanks Dale, maybe I'll just ditch it, the probe is pretty long.
