    I have Headers and straight pipes, but the cats are still there.
    It’s always been my dream to have a V8 that sounds like a race car and
    the cats are damping that sound.
    So does anyone have a schematic of the O2 Downstream sensor?

    Thank you
    I’ve already got JBA Shorty’s on there and straight pipes. It sounds really really good, but I’m going for that raw engine sound.

    Lots of people have removed the cats and used j-pipe /anti foulers with no codes. Although some have gotten a p0420 code.

    Yeah, I heard that too, and I think I will try that first. But if it doesn’t work I found a YouTube video where a guy put a resistor and capacitor on the O2 sensor(on a Ford Crown Vic). So I need to know the function of each of my wires in order to put them in the correct position.

    Ok. Similar to my URD rear O2 simulators.
