New lite-weight Exhaust
You guys might want to change the way those o2 sensors are mounted.
I know Zeitronix recommends this:
"The oxygen sensor must be positioned vertically (wires pointing upwards between 10 and 2o’clock) to prevent cracking of the sensor ceramic element and protect sensor against water condensation."
AEM recommends at least 10 degrees from the horizontal line. See figure 8 in the link below.

Thanks for your post this is not the first car we work on and we've done this more than once and we have yet to have any sort of issue with the placement of any of our wideband sensors . Reading will not be changed because of is place but if the sensor is placed too low then you can get condensation settling on the sensor face which indeed will cause damage to the unit . If you'd like your exhaust to sit horizontal just let us know when you place your order .
