I have a MY96 UK Turbo and the Lambda sensor is on the down pipe just behind the intercooler. They can be a real git to get off so make sure you use plenty of DW40.

im confused as to why a load of people seem to be removing lamda sensors from decats and blanking the holes off. Surely this totally ****s the fueling up?

Thats not the lamda sensor on the downpipe!! Its in the headers..

siwrx

then whats the sensor on the wire that plugs into the downpipe midway down (through the hole in the cat heat shield on the original)

Katana

Thats a temperature sensor. If you connect it the wrong way round, the "overheating" light comes on. It doesn't have to be connected by the way..
