Mechanical o2 fix

Anybody on here know where you can get one for a reasonable price? I know you can fab one by buying a pair of spark plug anti-foulers and drilling a hole through one. I was going to buy one from lancershop.com until they were going to charge me $11 to ship a little screw...

I think you can make one. There was a "how to" on this I believe.

For the people that have done this, is there enough room to jack up, or put the evo on ramps to work, or did you put your evo on a lift?

It's fairly simple and easy. You can do this in your garage or driveway. Just jack and support it safely while you're working under the car. No need for a lift, but use it if you can. Lifts give you a hell lot more room to work with.

Make friends with someone who has a tactrix cable and you can just disable/simulate it through the ecu = Free. Disconnect the sensor and plug the bung hole...lol
