Hey what's everyone doing about this in their m30 swap? I am using e34 downpipes and am trying to use the e30 exhaust system. Can I put an o2 bung in just one exhaust tube?

Sure!
Mine was actually placed right in the collector where the two pipes join.///Monstrosity. (OO≡≡[][]≡≡OO)

Is that a collector under the heat shielding just behind where the downpipes start to bend upwards? If so ill do my best to put it there!sigpic<< wreckedComment

Yes it is, think more like an x pipe. The exhaust shop cut my collector in half when they did my exhaust, so I just had one put in the side of my exhaust facing outwards.Comment

In my swaps i always put it in the middle of the X pipe so it can sniff both cylinders 1-3 and 4-6 evenly.Comment

Wherever you put it try to have it positioned between 9 and 3 oclock so it doesn't contact a lot of moisture like it would if it were placed near the bottom of a pipe.Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. -Mark TwainComment

For future reference, here's what a stock e30 o2 sensor bung looks like welded into e30 m30 downpipes... About 1/4" gap that needed to be filled because of the discrepancy in tubing size

Is the sensor going to receive exhaust gas free flowing over it in that configuration?
Ideal location is directly in the gas path, not beside it.///Monstrosity. (OO≡≡[][]≡≡OO)

I do not know how well it flows. We cut about 1/2" across oval into both tubes. We used the bung from stock 325i downpsigpic<< wreckedComment
