With my new downpipe the A/F probe's cable wont reach to the connector. Can i make it longer with a standard cable? or is it a special wire?

If it is a stock O2 sensor, it is just a single wire that should be safe and easy to extend.

yes it is stock.

I made a downpipe and never thought that cable would get too short

It's only a few centimeters short.

Watch out if you use crimp connectors -- the exhaust heat is likely to melt them. You might want to cut the stock wire near the connector end (rather than the sensor end) and add a short section of wire there. That should help keep the extension and connectors away from the heat. The insulation on the wire you use might also be an issue. I think the stock wire has a "high temp" insulation on it to keep it healthy in the heat.

that will be no problem, we have all sorts of cables home
