david, where'd you get your o2 sensors? I'm going to be changing mine in the next week or so too.

I have the ATW engine, so I went with the VW sensor for 22 dollars. It wont work for your engine.

You can try ECS tuning alternatively oxygen sensors dot com

How did you know you needed an 02 sensor(s)? Did you get a check engine light?
