O2 Sensor Extension

EdHilario · 02-07-2008, 03:38 AM

Hey guys, for all those who were interested in the O2 Sensor Extension from Casper's Electronics, I have some good news.

They finally e-mailed me back saying that they will put up the proper Subaru parts there on Feb. 7th

Copy & Paste of their reply:

That would have been nice to have yesterday, but we cut and soldered instead.

leafs fan · 02-07-2008, 06:27 AM

Cool, i got the same response. I guess we made the product in demand

leafs fan · 02-07-2008, 07:05 AM

Hey Edhilario, what length are you ordering Flaps suggested a 36"

EdHilario · 02-07-2008, 07:27 AM

I asked them for a 24". I hope that's long enough lol. I really don't know. I guess better to be safe than sorry and go with a longer one eh?

leafs fan · 02-07-2008, 05:38 PM

Yeah thats what I was thinking.

I dont see the new sensor extension yet. Although the website has changed so I guess their still working on it.

EdHilario · 02-07-2008, 06:23 PM

Yeah, I'm anxiously awaiting for the update as well...

I think that a 24" should be long enough though. If it's too long, you may need to find a way to secure it so that the wire isn't hitting the heatshield and rattling. I've had that before lol

Paranoid Fabrications · 02-07-2008, 07:08 PM

wow, great idea from these guys. always sucks cutting and crimping longer wires.

ZeppelinPie792 · 02-07-2008, 10:25 PM

Just came home from work, and my extension was sitting on the counter in the kitchen.

Here are two quick cellphone shots I snapped AFTER I put them in (I was too eager to get my car not sounding like crap)

leafs fan · 02-07-2008, 10:29 PM

^^^
What length did you get?

Sylon · 02-07-2008, 10:36 PM

No change to the site yet, but thanks to you guys finding it. Let us know how the finished product is after the full install if there are any problems

RaceFaceXC · 02-07-2008, 10:38 PM

Zep, those extensions came with that wire housing? is it plastic or some kind of metal?

ZeppelinPie792 · 02-07-2008, 10:43 PM

Plastic

2 feet

8Complex · 02-07-2008, 11:28 PM

Just curious, but what would an extension be used to fix? Even with my turbo kit on, I have never had a problem.

With an after market cat-pipe, like a high flow cat, the rear O2 sensor is at the end of the pipe. It is too far away for your stock one to reach.

I also heard something about it somehow fixing the CEL, which I don't see how.

For the 06+ models who want to go with UEL headers, that requires them to get a new HFC and CBE. When you do this, one of the O2 sensors needs to be extended to reach the rear O2 bung in the new CAT.

Its been a discussion in this section for eons now Mr. Turbo.

EdHilario · 02-08-2008, 05:00 AM

With getting aftermarket headers and catpipe, the O2 bungs are further back from where it was stock. These extensions save you from hacking your sensor (which I did) and potentially throwing a CEL (which mine did within the past couple of months).

That "wire housing" RaceFace, comes with the extension. It's just regular wire loom to protect from the elements (ie. water).

As of 5am Feb. 8, the site still hasn't changed. Boo! They were just yanking my chain.

leafs fan · 02-08-2008, 06:19 AM

Tell me about it. These guys and communication dont seem to go together.

EdHilario · 02-08-2008, 07:39 AM

Dunno how Zepp got his lmao.

Isn't his going to the first O2? The "pre cat" one was listed on their site in 24" already.

You will not need to get an extension for the pre-cat O2 sensor. Only a 24" for the post-cat O2 sensor

EdHilario · 02-08-2008, 06:30 PM

They are all still the Toyota part numbers on the Subaru page.

Perames · 02-09-2008, 03:28 AM

FYI they finally updated their website. I just ordered my extension tonight.

EdHilario · 02-09-2008, 03:49 AM

That's friggin awesome! lol they even used the picture from our board.

It's only one product though. No varying lengths.

leafs fan · 02-09-2008, 05:47 AM

AHHHHHHHHHHHH
These people are annoying. I want to make sure I get the right length.

**edit**
Nevermind once you add it to basket you choose the length. I change my mind I love these people.
