- check the condition of the sparkplug, and ensure you have propper gapping. From my experience, we use simple NGK V-groove plugs for all performance and boosted apps. They are inexpensive and work well

- if you had never replaced 02 sensor do that. The Injection system on Leganza depends heavily on these, and if you get incorrect reading, the motor might be getting either too little or too much fuel, causing reduced performance
- replace fuel filter
- add fuel injector cleaner to the gas
- check the spark plug wires
- check all the vacuum lines

Installing higher flow injectors will not make the car run better. For about 150 crank horsepower, you would want to use something in the range of 22-24 lbs/hr @85% duty.... anything larger and you will not see any gains. Remember the injector size is matched with the horsepower...

Hope this helps.

how much would those cost? how much r u o2 sensors? r the o2 sensors universal? how many o2 sensors r on the car and where r the sensors?

I will have to get back to you on this. 02 sensors are vehicle-specific. Leganza uses 2 of them. One on the exhaust manifold downpipe, and second one behind the cat underneath (someone correct me if I'm wrong).

When i looked in the leggy manual, i couldn't find a second o2 sensor after the cat, only the one on the exhaust manifold... pt no. 25162753

a woo that is a work in progress

it's the same one for both... you have one in your manifold, and one right after the flex pipe just after it curves under the car.

spent more $ on the o2 for the super flow cat... damn

bosch o2 sensors have patented technology

re-read what he said... would have never intall... means that, he wouldn't. You averaged 88 in 11th grade english course and still can't read?

Performance sensors? hahaha It's like having a performance shift knob.

bosch o2 sensors rule... but its bad to put more than 1 sensor? can someone confirm how many sensors r there and how to test for bad sensor?
