turbo wit no O2 sensor???
 
can i do that?
i dont have a swnpipe for my turbo yet but can i run it without. plan was to take it to the shope so they could run a new exhaust for me?

and the hole in the back of the vavle cover that use to go to the intake,
do i just put a brether filter on that?

oh, you're just going to drive it to the exhaust shop, and they're gonna weld bungs in for your 02? if so, yeah, that will be fine, the car will start and should run fine, especially for just a short distance. yeah, you can just put a breater filter on the nipple on the valve cover, or you can make a catch can down the road, but a breather is fine for now.

naw
there isn't a pipe at all!
just the exhuast housing
i was gonna try to put a pipe on there til i go the shop so the exhaust fumes would at least go towards the ground.

yeah, i know, that's what i meant, but when they make your exhaust, they're gonna weld bungs in, so you are gonna have your 02 sensor, you'll just be driving to the exhaust shop with no exhaust/02's? if so, that should be fine, but yeah, just make sure you don't have any wires or plastic too close to the housing where the exhaust can melt them.....

people say that, but i didn't have my 02 sensor hooked up on my old integra and it ran perfect, no difference at all (except the cel :-\)

well generally, when you have a cel on, there is obviously a problem with one of your sensors, so the ecu usually goes in "limp" mode, which basically, it just runs rich (which makes the car lack power), and doesn't let you rev over 4k usually, this is basically just a safety precaution, but i've never known it to go in "limp" mode for an 02 :-\
