Re: performance w/o O2 senseor?

["Owen" <mr.peepers@home.com>]

Good to hear.  I have a slalom this weekend, but won't have a working O2
sensor by then, so i didn't wanna suffer any power loss.  and yeah, it's a
euro sport header, so it replaces the cat too.  Luckily we don't have
inspections, or emission testing in Alberta.
