Not trying to highjack thread but was wondering ?
IfusingPower Commander with BSS and Stage #1 ,I can use plugs in pipes instead of 02 sensors ?
What abought the Vance and Hines Fuel pack ?? Is it the same deal ??
Just wondering if anyone knows for sure ....

 

if you go with the PCIII then you can plug your o2 sensors since they are not used. the fuel pac uses the sensors, i have been wrong before though! i did find a couple of drain plugs and they fit great. i am installing the pipes tonight... hope to get a pic up when i am done.

and as for the stupid looks... yeah i called the local dynojet dyno tuner in my area... spoke to a chick in parts and i told here i was looking for an "O2 sensor plug". she said she didnt really know what i was talking about, then ask what bike i had "an 02(read zero, two) what?" and i said never mind! give me to someone in service!

 

i should mention that the local tuner is a suzuki dealer......

also you guys that used plugs... did you use any type of washer... the guys at carquest (whom i know pretty well) told me they would put a copper washer there instead of the supplied plastic one. i was either going with a copper, steel, or no washer at all. thoughts?

 

I went with no washer at all. It came with a plastic one but i yanked that off. I was wondering the same thing before i did mine. I thought the O2 sensors had a copper crush gasket. I was at a dealer and asked them the same question. I was told that i didnt need one for the plugs. The guy at the dealer pulled out some plugs from drag specialties and they didnt have any washers. I would think that as long as you've got that plug well seated and you've got a metal to metal face seal on the the bung you'd be good to go. I've got a couple hundred miles on my bike since my install 2 wks ago and have had no problem yet.

 

I didn't use any washers just never seize

 

ok guys i got her done last night... took her for a quick spin and she is only has some minor popping on decelration... i know there is posts somewhere in here on how to adjust the curve to fix the problem. so i will be adjusting my map a little tonight or this weekend to try to fix this and set my zero throttle and WOT. thanks for all the help guys. i ended up using the copper washers.

total install time for A/C, Pipes, and PCIII was about 2-2.5 hours. if you have a few tools and a little know how you can do all this yourself in no time at all!
