   Hi please can someone advise me on what to do with the oxygen sensor in cat and bottom lambda sensor when fitting a piper 4-1 manifold to a 2001 vtr, I have just picked up gaskets and bolts now keen to get it fitted... as it only has the one hole at the bottom and I don't want the engine management light coming on?
   
   Much appreciated Loz.

   Top lambda plugs into manifold,2nd(lower)one tie that out of the way where it can get clean air.

   err no -that is wrong --it needs to be in a sleeve so heater circuit can heat up he probe and just sniff fresh air --not cow shit or tar--or whatever else hits it from under car

   I had mine tied behind the battery for a long time, no issues
