hey guys,im almost finished rebuilding my 3.0 and i want to run dual exhaust when its done. my question is, will this affect my O2 sensor? because i only have one, so will i be fine running it on only one side? any feed back would be appreciated, thanks

 

isnt there two??? one before and after the cat??

either way, maybe you could put one of the o2 sensor trick sender ( i have no idea what its called, but it sends a normal signal no matter what.)

then just run the dual. I dont know.

 

On the 3.0's there is only one 02 sensor...you could run dual exhausts after the cat if you really want a dual exhaust. IMHO i wouldn't run dual exhaust on a 3.0 that engine doesn't have enough power to take advantage of the dual exhausts...I have 2.5" pipe all the way back with a Magnaflow muffler and it sounds great and it is faster than most 3.0's (of course i have the heads ported and pollished...). Anyway let me stop rambling...good luck!

 

A lot would argue that 2.5" is too big on the 3.0.

If you want to run duals, go for it.. The easiest way would be to get a single in dual out muffler and just have the tailpipes custom made. I would suggest staying at 2" or if you must 2.25" at the most.

 

alright, thanks for the info guys

 

You need to locate 02 after the join of exh. pipes.

 

congratulations on bumping a 2 year old thread.
