Which X-pipe did you buy? Are they not located in the same spot as the stock pipe?

Never heard that one before... I know the SLP x-pipes require an extender to get to the O2 sensors behind the cats but not the top ones... they should be stock locations... did you put the pipe on backwards??

yeah i stil can not figure it out the x pipe is on perfect but the sensor's r still not plugging in the back one has like a 7 inch gap even witht the mill eliminator and the front one has like 2 inch gap im not sure what i should do. the passenger side is perfect both of those sensor's fit well. i drove the car with just the passenger sensors in and the check engine light was not on.

Did you do LT headers and get a shorty? If you did you need the extenders.

You can also cut the wires in half and splice them together. Do this with the BATTERY UNPLUGGED.

If you do splice em you need to make sure that you really get a good seal with electical tape, and make sure you keep it up and out of the way.


Of course, the best way is to get a custom tune done on your car and have em turn off the rear cats.
