Cp-e downpipe with PG/DNP manifold - can you fit a wideband?

[xcoldr1cex]

so the second wideband hole on the cp-e can't fit an aftermarket wideband with the stock manifold because the manifold sits too low and there isn't enough clearance for the wideband. could ANYONE with an aftermarket mani of these tell me if you can fit a wideband in? or perhaps give me a measurement of the clearance from the wideband hole to the mani... i'd appreciate it a lot!

Asking this on every mazda forum? haha. I wish I could help you out. But my manifold is off to be ceramic coated. Would be interesting to find out though. I tried looking at these pics... but it's hard to tell. Plus he has v1 dp and v1 manifold and I have v2 dp and manifold. http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123701147

get dashhawk, the ms3 already has a wideband, just read what the ecu is reading

yeah, because no one can answer my question... i know more than a handful of people have this setup!

it looks like it should... i think i saw a corksport dp with a second wideband in it... but the cp-e second bung is pretty far forward compared to the CS, so who knows.

thanks, but i'd rather have a gauge to monitor it... already have the kit for it.

next to the 2nd o2 sensor, get a incert welded 45Degrees off, done..

from that pic, just put it 3 inches down from the current one..

you'd still have to pull the dp off to weld it properly. that is what i'm trying to AVOID.
