I'm not sure if I want to put the O2 bung for my Innovate wideband in the stock mids near the upstream O2, if I want to put it in the downstream O2 of the stock mids after the cats (that O2 sensor location is currently turned off in my tune,) or if I want to get bassani off road mids (can't afford catted mids right now.)
The issue I have with the stock mids is two fold.
One, I'm not sure I want to spend the time and money to put it downstream in the stock mids, since you don't get an accurate A/F reading when it's after the cats. Is that right?
Two, I'm not sure I want to drill and install a bung near the stock upstream O2 location because I'm afraid the metal shavings from drilling for the bung will ruin my stock cat. Should I just pull the stock mids down, install the O2 bung, then clean the shavings out and reinstall the mids, or will the tiny amount of shavings not even hurt the stock cat?
The issue I have with the aftermarket mids is that I'm not sure I can take the noise. Combined with my silverbullet catback I'm afraid It'll be way too loud for around town. I don't want to be worried about pulling away from a light if there's a cop next to me or across the intersection etc... Will I be competing for loudest vehicle in my county with stock headers, offroad mids, and the silverbullet?
Help?
