Had a bad day today,not only a smashed headlamp but because my engine
mounts have gone the friggin ex pipe has snapped just in front of the cat [on manifold side of flange ]. Crying or Very sad

Now my question is....what do i do with the lambada sensor if i use the manifold off of the ph1, because there is no where to put it.

What is the best way of solving my problem

use the downpipe and all the 16V's have a lambda sensor hole in the downpipe.

Unless you have a 1.4 they have then in 2 places, downpipe or manifolds collector.

ahh import, did it have the adjustable CO thingy beside the ignition module?

Worst comes to worst you need to get he old downpipe welded up, a new boss welded into the imports D/P or you get a 2nd hand D/P

you could swap it over, the early system has the higher 7200rpm rev limit.
