I just installed my used turboback exhaust and got it all hung up and connected but where the muffler pipe and the straight pipe meet it wont connect together. I was told that I need to buy a 3 over extension on one side and a 3 over over on the other, anyone experience this?

Also I broke my O2 housing that goes into my straight pipe...I got a check engine light which i figured would happen, but will this cause my car to run rich? I have the hole plugged.
 
Without an o2 sensor and no fuel control your car will run like crap in general.

Hello Adam, it's me again. ROFL Unlike 1Gs with just one O2, rear O2 on 2G will not effect your fuel trim or anything related to the operation of the car except the annoying CEL which can be avoided by installing a proper size resister in its place to trick the ECU into thinking the sensor is still there. 98GSXboosted, do a search on the forum, I have read many threads concerning this subject with all the information you need.
 
yea its some wort of wiring that makes the ecu think it got a censor and a cat converter and it runs fine...

You did not bust me this time I just missread. I thought be busted his o2 housing and took the o2 sensor out of there and wasn't running the front one. Which would make it run like crap. I just read through it to fast. You are right. I had the resistor on my 2g I had on the rear o2 to eliminate it.
