lambda sensor

[EPnick22]

what would happen if i didnt run one of these? (obviously have the hole blanked off) but Ive read a few things about it, i know what the lambda does obviously but was just curious cause ive heard from some people its better in some ways?

Fuel economy would be terrible.

Unless you're on a full standalone ECU I wouldn't even consider removing the lambda sensor.

think i should replace mine? the wire has been knocked a million times while bolting/ unbolting my decat and the wire doesnt look too healthy, worth a shot at getting a new one? my fuel economy is terrible now even when i drive sensibly

i took mine off and there was no difference to the cars performance or economy lol

[EPnick22]

thats what i mean Ive heard many things from different people and wasn't quite sure what to think

I unplugged mine out of curiosity, on my old civic though, whilst doing a 4 gas analyser test at work and could see the readings go mental.

Infact, i didnt have one when i first started the GT, had no decat or exhaust on it though lol.

Just get a new one bud, like 25 quid for a starlet.

If it wasn't needed they wouldn't have one I'd put it back in bud can pick single wire ones up cheap off the bay that's where mine came from cut the plug off the oem one and solder together and heat shrink job done
