Fab up a 90 degree adaptor, then just use one non-fouler. What you've got now, is dangerous.

I went to an auto parts store yesterday and they told me they didn't have any thing that was similar to the non-fouler with a 90 degree bend in it, but they told me a name of store that probably will have it, i'll be going there in a few minutes

as far as rotating the testpipe, if i do, the the other end won't match up with the rest of the exhaust.

assuming you already tried it...I know one side is a 2-bolt and the other is 3...I just wasn't sure if it would work

yeah, the 3 bolt side is shaped sorta like a triangle although it's not the same length on all sides, which is why it wouldn't work sadly

i went to the parts store after spending half an hour or more trying to find it and they didn't have it, they said another one near theirs might, but then that one was nowhere to be found, so i just headed home.

i'll ask my dad tonight if he can custom make the piece for me, he's a ship engineer and they're always building their own parts at work. if that doesn't work, i may just go ahead and remove the testpipe and sell it =\

I got my T1R exhaust and T1R testpipe a few days ago, and did this mod as well, however the O2 sim is about 3 inches from the ground now





is there some sort of non-fouler i can get that will cause it to be at more of an angle?
thats weired, my friend has the t1r test pipe and the o2 sensor sits perfectly horizontal. im running the j's racing and its also horizontal.
