    Just planning out a build and wondering if both front o2's should be on the downpipe about 6 or 7 inches away from the turbo?

    Most people place them on the down pipe.
    I got mine in the headers . They been there for 4 year and the car run and idles great. No problem yet :2thumbs:
    In the hellion kit they are before the turbo as well...

    Spyder turbo systems puts theirs in the headers. Their shop car has been like that for years with no problems.

    I would say the headers however the heat you would think could kill them

    10-18 inches in the down pipe is fine. Depends on the how long or short the pipe is.

    If you put it in the header you should adjust the WB due the pressure incured pre-turbo.
    Post turbo it is not athing to worry about.
