I have heard that it is best to place the O2 sensor within half a metre of the head, but I have also heard one of the reasons the VN Commodore runs crap is because the sensor only reads one bank of cylinders.
Most cars i've seen have the sensor placed to only read one or two cylinders. I'd like to put it at the end of my 4-2-1 extractors to read the gas from all cylinders, but this is a fair way back. What effect does distance have? Surely the only change in the gas with distance is the temp and density, nothing chemical...? Is there an ideal position for the sensor?
What do people think? All opinions/comments/help appreciated!
