I have been reading this post with interest since I converted my 164S to a
euro exhaust system a few months ago. I needed to replace the exhuast
system and decided to go with a system from a Euro twin spark 164. The
system is almost a bolt on deal, needing very little fabrication. The big
difference is it uses resonators in place of the cat. In the cat, the 02
sensor is located in a crossover section near the front of the converter.
With the new systen, twin pipes are used so I decided to place the 02 sensor
in one side and see what happens. I have not noticed any loss of power or
fuel milage and it seems to run great.
In addition to the euro front pipes, I placed an Ansa rear section on the
car and the sound is quite nice, a bit quiet for my taste but it makes the
long interstate trips more bearable.
