I'm putting headers on my car and my 02's have around 79k miles on them should i just get new ones or just use them with extensions.

new ones never hurt. Also everyone that I know who has long tubes replace their 02's atleast once a year

These things look pretty bad. Can i just put a bolt in the rear 02 sensor holes? I know they will throw a code but thats fine its going to throw a bunch of codes for the air and egr.

If I could go back in time to when I did my headers, I'd just shell out the cash for the Bosch vette sensors, and not even waste the 25 bucks on the plug and play extensions. I've had two of my stock sensors crap out on me since last spring.

thats what im thinking about doing. What about the rear sensor plugs should i just bolt them in? any way to cap the rear o2 sensor plugs?

what are the symptoms of a bad 02 sensor?

I bought the Bosch rear corvette sensors and I have not had a single problem. Best move I made during my header install. The wires are plenty plenty long and even for the first 2 weeks without any tuning I never threw 1 single CEL or code.

if u want to cap a 02 sensor fitting, go to a parts store and ask for a 1989 toyota cressida engine drain plug, it is the perfect size and is from the toyota inline 6 7M-GE motor

What 02's go bad fast with long headers?
