I've recently got the same code, but I'm stock in the exhaust department...minus a Greddy Evo II canister. It's the primary O2 sensor from what others told me. How many miles on your OZ?

Could mean the O2 sensor is fried or the stock exhaust manifold (with the catalytic converter) is fried.

Yeah, that looks about right...but it's just one of those things that "go out" with time. I'm about to do more research about using a cheaper alternative O2...the 1998 Eclipse turbo 2wd O2 sensor (per WADADLIG_OZ [https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh....php?t=310888]) is supposed to be a direct replacement. Anyone care to comment on this? Thx
