Default SLP LT 02 extensions....

I have SLP LT's and my buddy told me that the extensions that come with the headers send a weak signal to the 02's which trips a 02 code cause they dont heat up enough. what 02's can i put in that that will work corvette ones?? please give some insight if u have any or suggestions.. thanks,,,

I don't think the extensions are the problem, that
"cause" sounds like gibberish to me. The problem is
heat loss and is common to all long tubes. The
'vette rear O2s are the best fix going, as fas as I
have seen; whether or not they're a cure, or just
a pain reliever, comes down to cases (how much
a given header type throws away exhaust heat,
how close-in the sensor is, how cold it is outside,
how fast you warm up, your driving cycle, etc.).

Corvette Rear O2 Sensors:

Bosch 13111
Denso DEN 234-4087 (? seen at least two different P/Ns)

Is this Denso part number still current?

Ive been running the extensions for quite some time as well and no problems, another buddy of mine uses the corvette o2's so both will work just fine.
