Oxygen Sensor...

[91civichatch2571]

I just bought a new header and the oxygen sensor hole is way down by where the cat hooks up. Im sure it wont reack that far since the stock position is only a few inches from the block so what kind of wire do I use to extend it? Anything special??

What year is the header from?

i thought usually the header comes with the wire to extend it...

Well if he has 2 holes for the o2 sensor he doesn't need the 2nd hole. Just plug that up.

The header is from Neuspeed and its meant for an 88-91 civic/crx. It only has 1 oxygen sensor hole (the one down toward the cat) and it didnt come with any extra wire.

I had the same problem. get a BOSCH oxygen sensor with the factory connector, it's like $5 more but it is plenty long enough to reach down there.

If worst comes to worst, go to the junkyard and get both ends off a wire harness and make your own extension....

Theres no way to just go to the parts store and get a few inches of wire and connect it? Its no big deal though, I think ill just get a Bosch snesor like 91EF3ZC said.
