Default If I told ya, I'd have to kill ya :)

j/k.

Forethought. I had my mid-pipe modified. My o2 sensor is still plugged into the pipe...the same place as it would in the stock mid-pipe. If I revealed anymore, it wouldn't be a trick.

A free ride in the 3 for who ever figures it out

iModA3, where you at?

Default I'm just curious. I don't plan on running catless - something in my green conscious stops me.

There are, however, cheap catless dp's on ebay for the 2.0T A3, but I'd want to put a cat on there. We'll see.

Default Mempy, hit me with an email I may have your solution.

Of all people, Mr. Crew219 actually contacted me when I had a similar problem (combining Neuspeed chip w/ APR TBE) He suggested a guy who makes a solid angle block, which is a hand threaded 90 degree piece that pulls the exhaust sensor out of the exhaust stream and therefore will not throw the 420 code, which is what you are getting right now. If anyone needs this companys contact info, hit me on the hip: mildjimshales@mac.com
Im happy to share this resource with anyone who needs it on a one-on-one basis.
