No rear O2 sensor because of catless setups.

One thing that becomes obvious after watching that G8 video is the trans doesn't allow the motor to fall on it's face like our 4-speeds.

I don’t have a video. I posted this up awhile back but nobody commented on it. Anyway the story be hind it is. Me and the old lady was in the car and I asked her to check the GPS to make sure the speedo was on. So she went to the menu and looked, the speed was right on then she seen the top speed and started giving me ****. I told her the fastest I’ve had the car going was 120 maybe 130. All of a sudden she says…crap that was me. All of a sudden its not a big deal? Mmmm
