@Twitch i got the carted version and I have a question, what is supposed to go in that hole in the side of the pipe? An O2 sensor? Also how did you get the O2 sensor off of the original downpipe with that metal cover?

The hole on the side of the pipe is the lower o2 sensor. After the cat.



For the top sensor you need an o2 sensor removal tool. I rented one from autozone. I tried to buy one and stripped it. If you have an autozone close go rent one.

I got the top o2 sensor off, but I'm still not seeing this o2 sensor? I only have 2, one that's before the cat and the other that is at the end of the mid-pipe

That's weird. If I look up a 2014 sedan this is what I see for a converter.



It should have an O2 sensor there....

Maybe it being an MT would change that? My secondary o2 is way back at the end of the mid pipe

Hmmm I don't have one there. I wonder if there is a mistake in the drawings online and Honda changed something.

Everything is good with my catless downpipe so far, I'm still in the process of being tuned by Vit. No CEL's as of yet. Sounds a little raspy on WOT, however could be my exhaust system. I'm running a custom 2 1/4 Magnaflow exhaust system from the downpipe back. I do experience better throttle response and more pick up. Overall I'm happy with it. Great product!! Easy install!! If your thinking of buying one, just do it. I recommend it!! :)
