I ran into the same problem and trust me do it this way.

your downpipe, weld an O2 bung about 1 inch from the flange that connects to the test pipe, and that will be your O2 sensor, Then just use your test pipe for the wideband and it will fit. I have to get mine rewelded so I can use the second O2 sensor . I can clear it out but it always pops back up for some reason

Thats a good idea! that way i can use both my 02 sensors, and the wideband! Good thinking there, ill do that! Did you try the spark plug non-foulers for the second 02 sensor? Use two of them together, usually from what i hear that does the trick!

to be honest I never heard of that Idea at all

2.5'' piping. I was thinking about buying this and cutting off the flange from the test pipe and cat-back and welding in a section of 2.5'' pipe to complete the system. This exhaust is going to be permanant.

Anything will work for a turbo, the more flow the better it will be able to put out power though. If you email the guy who sells SRS, like nissongtr or whatever, he'll probably send it to you a bit cheaper outside of Ebay. That's how I did it, and it worked out fine. Shippinng on the one you quoted nearly makes it as expensive as the srs one, and I've heard both and like the srs sound better. It's much deeper.

found it! its a lot easier than cutting and spicing plus less chance of a leak. like i said you basically just make the line longer...

Haha oh ok i got ya! Thanks for that!! So basically one line goes to the hard pipe, then the other to the TB?

exactly its alot easier to tell you the truth just make sure you get plenty line, I think I got 6 foot just to be safe, go to napa and brng your turbo with you and tell them I need a hose that will fit this piece, napa is good at taking care of problems.
