I have a AEM wideband sensor that i was trying to put on the car and thought i had to weld a bung onto it. When i got under the car i noticed that the de-cat pipe already had a bung on it. It looks like an autobahn88 pipe with a bung near the rear. Now i measured it and its not 36" away from the turbo outlet or whatever, its probably closer to 46". Do you guys think it will be okay?

Here is the pipe. the bung is near the back of the pipe towards the rear exhaust tip.

Unless I'm missing something....can't you just unbolt and reverse your decat pipe to move the bung closer? I guess you are pulling off the front pipes to check the front turbo seal for a leak anyway

yeah i guess you are right, i'm just not sure if it was reversalbe. Regarding the turbo leak, you think i have to remove the front pipes regardless? this is my first time ever diagnosing an turbo leak issue

Just make sure you that decat pipe is sealed well to the front pipe and you'll have no issues.

Just your reading during transient throttle might be a tiny bit delayed however if fed back to the ECU it's ignored anyway during transient events.
