"Crow's Foot" wrenches like that one generally cause damage to the hex object being removed. You can buy an 02 sensor deep socket, but I don't know if there is room to turn it with a ratchet or breaker bar.

what teh hell is that? never seen that

go to any autoparts store...
EVEN SEARS has it.

pretty much ask or look for o2 sensor socket.

its long and is split on side so the wire can pass through.and twist.
soooooooooooooooooo easy once you got it

good luck

okay got the header installed for a couple days now...the exhaust tone significantly deepens compared to stock header.
acceleration has improved after 3k rpm and after that the tone is much louder overall is alright no leaks

Megan Header

I love my Megan Header. My thinking is alike yours, as too going with the Megan Header until I save enough money for a turbo kit!
As far as my car with the intake and axle back as well....it screams at 5/6K RPM. I am sure you will enjoy it.
