No check engine light so far with the green cats

@tx-ripper I thought I’d seen a post where you had difficulty with the o2 sensor cable lengths?

The easiest way with certain headers.to plug in the O2's which have a moved location is to buy the O2 sensor from Ford that has the longer harness plug

Do you have the performance or factory connect?

My understanding is that the kit is supposed to come with extensions?

Did the headers not come with the extensions?
