My question involves exhaust components.
The car in question is a 2G GST.
I have a T4 setup. T4 Tubular Manifold, and T4 Turbo. 46mm WG is flanged off the manifold. The turbine has a 5 bolt outlet. I could not find anyone who makes an O2 housing flanged for this type of turbo on a mitsubishi. So what I did is essentially custom weld a downpipe with the 5 bolt flange (a flang from Forced Performance) all the way to the cat-back exhaust. Then welded a bung on the pipe for the O2 sensor.
My question: It is okay to run this way. What are the pros and cons of not having an O2 housing. Should I make an O2 housing, and weld the flange on here?
