Last night playing around with a mustang I blew the downpipe off the 02 housing. Now whenever I go WOT I get knock. Is is possible since the car is so loud now this is simply phantom knock? Pretty much as soon as I enter boost the knock sum gauge lights up 3 clicks. Car was tuned to ZERO knock before this happened.
Other question is this. I have an 02 Eliminator housing and the 02 sensor is therefore plugged into my downpipe. Since the 02 sensor is now being completely bypassed is the ECU going to go into limp mode? Car seems to be running okay but I haven't really been doing much else than babying it around. Is it okay to leave it like this until the weekend when I can fix it? Anything I should be concerned about?
