RE: Tech Question: 16V passat engine again.

You could remove the sensor. The benefits would be less power, shitty fuel
economy, poor starting, etc. GO FOR IT! ;-) Really now... why would you want
to remove it? If yours is acting up then replace it with a new one. Unlike a
cat, an 02 sensor is your friend to the end. -an essential part of a modern
injection system (nearly semi-modern in our case).

Hells no.

Either run a Supersprint header or the stock manifold plus downpipe of your
choosing. The stock unit works fine; the Techtonics race (non-cat) version
makes lots of power and lots of noise to go with it. I've elected to use the
Techtonics pipe, of course. :-)
