VT Extractors

[daniel199260]

hi guys
i just got myself a set of Pacemaker extractors with Y piece and a highflo cat.
read a few tutorials on how to put them on. i went to go out today to have ago and noticed this sensor on the standard headers that is not mentioned in anything ive read about replacing standard with aftermarket, i know about the 2 sensors on the y piece but then there is this one that i have no idea what it is and havnt read anything about what to do with it when changing them.
am i supposed to be cutting a hole in the new ones for this sensor to go in or? what do i do with it?

That is the EGR fitting, the VT is the only one that has that. The later model extractors will fit, but do not have that fitting.

What I would do is undo the pipe off the fitting, then remove the fitting from the manifold and weld it to the extractors without drilling it through. Attach the EGR pipe and it looks like it is hooked up. It isn't essential to make it run, as long as it looks like it is there.

Or, you can remove the EGR pipe altogether and block it off.

so what if i was to take it off all together and just block the whole in the plenum, would it pass roadworthy or nah?

If the guy looking at it knows it should be there, then no, it won't pass.
