Lamba Sensor Position On Turbo Conversion

[dave205 19]

Before i start i did try a search!!

 

Im ready to fit the lamba sensor on my turbo conversion, how far down the downpipe should it be in inches??

12" or so will suffice, what us more important is the orientation so that anycondensation will not sit on the probe.

How should i orientate it so this wont happen?

think logically....

 

or look at a standard cat off a pug, typically they are horizontal and angled forwards for clearance to the exhaust tunnel

Should it be slightly more than horizontal to prevent condensation sitting on it as tom said? and when you say angled forward how'd you mean??

anywhere between 3 o clock and 9 o clock is ok,, but between 2 o clock and 10 o clock is optimal..

 

and as Tom said " 12" or so will suffice, "

I assume you mean anywere between 3 to 9 oclock as 3,4,5,6,7,8 or 9 oclock positions, not the topside of the pipe?

my bad,, that was a terrible desciption... sorry mate

 

it needs to be as close to 12 o clock as you can get it, ideal at top, but anything as low as 3-9,, nothing below that.. so not 4 5 6 7 8 as condensed acidic water and oxides will pool here...

Ah i get u know!

I cant fit it at 12 oclock because of the tunnel, so im either going to put it at 10/11 oclock or put it closer than 12" to the manifold.
