I'm looking at 250000+ and I'm fairly certain the cat is clogged. I'm wanting to consider all my options. Is there a second o2 sensor in the converter? What diameter is the piping? Does it change through the length?
Sorry for my long absence I had a lot of old messages in my inbox.
Educate me on 850 t5 exhaust please.

There is an 02 sensor in front of and behind the cat but nothing in the cat itself. I think the piping on the stock exhaust is 2.5 inches all the way through.

Could be a bad turbo. What's it doing? Have you tried pulling the pre-cat o2 sensor and see if it improves?
