Newbie Exhaust Questions
 

Before I order tonight or tomorrow:

I am ordering the mac prochamber for right now. No catback yet, I just dont need it right now.

So I make my way to brenspeed.com (they are all over ebay with a good feedback) and I get the prochamber in my shopping car, and now heres where I need the help.

Do I need both the mil eliminators and the o2 extensions for my 04?

and now a question about installing them...

Theres 4 sensors correct? The 2 front ones screw into the new h pipe like normal, then the 2 rear ones go sensor > mil eliminator > extension > into the new h pipe?

Please help. :p

I don't think you will need the extensions. I had to get extensions on my old stang when I installed my long tubes however.

you shouldnt need extenstions.

and it goes connector,mils,sensor into h-pipe.

Correct. No need for extensions. Just plugs in between the wiring harness and the REAR o2 sensor. Only time extensions are needed is with long tubes

Alright, so the front 2 sensors go in like normal, then the rear 2 sensors get the mil eliminators? :confused:

Thanks for the answers guys, after this im ordering.

you got it man.
:)

Exactly. Just a thought, it took me 20 minutes and $3 to make my own mil eliminators. I can find the diagram of how to make them for you if you want. It was very very simple and saves you a good amount of money

What all is involved in making them?

You just have to buy a couple small parts (under ~$5) from a local shop (radio shack, circut city, etc.) and you just need a little handheld soldiering iron. I was worried cuz I'm not exactly a welder, but its brainless and the instructions tell you EXACTLY what to do. Lemme try to find them, its seriously not worth spending a bunch of money for mil eliminators

Scroll down and it has a couple diagrams under "building mil eliminators". Don't be intimidated at all by it, I was at first and being a mechanical moron, I was still able to figure this one out.

I decided to go with the offroad H pipe instead of the prochamber because I heard it would be more of a wild rough rumble. Since it was $70 cheaper I went ahead and got the $50 MIL eliminators.

Thanks for the info though its definatelly a good read.

Oh thats cool, what brand offroad H did you go with?

Mac, same guys who do the prochamber. It was only 138 shipped so I figured why not.

right on. I wonder how it will sound. You should post up what you think when you get in installed, I'm curious how they sound.

Definatelly. I have the ability to get a good sound clip.. not one of those that are all distorted.

nice, definitly, PM me when you do if you remember

That's a very good article that you found and posted about the MIL eliminators. Bad for people that sell them though.

Not a big deal for them though. Alot of people would prefer to just buy stuff already made and guarenteed. Also not everyone has easy access to a soildering iron, my dad just happened to be a jeweler for 25 years.. :D

on some tuners you can turn off the back o2 sensers and there is no need for mils.

If you are going to leave your rear O2 sensors in and have them turned off by using a chip you'll need to get the extensions because the placement of the O2 sensors on the 04s is different than 99 - 03.
