People run those to avoid having to run O2 extensions. They'll work as good as the pre-cat O2s. There's still some debate if they truly cure the slow switching codes that are thrown when LT's are installed. Personally, I don't care for the Bosch NBO2's. But, it's hard to beat the price.

I bought some as an alternative to ordering/waiting a week for ext's. No problems thus far and many have been running them for long periods of time with no problems.

The long wire is nice, and yes they do work, but I did not find them to work any better than the normal ones w/ extentions. I eventually went open loop and tuned out the o2s altogather. I run a wideband to make sure things dont get out of whack...

long tubes put the o2 farther away than stock . 13111, I have them and on a scanner they switch fast .
