Make sure you get the right one. No problems at all as it still runs the first lamba in the manifold. A bit of a pain in the ass to fit though

I had an ashley one, mild steel and it cracked just about every weld
the lambda is very close to the fan so if you can get an extension to take it off at a different angle it will be fine
i have an eml on but i think thats due to a split in the flexi

never had any problems with mine tbh. it's amazing how much power you gain from removeing the cats on the z18xe.

Have a go at making one,you can get the flanges ready cut now and a old c20xe manifold.
Might easier than you think and save a few pennies,have seem this done on a x18xe1 mini conversion and didn`t look to bad.
