Ebay and such might be really poor guides in this area. Search here on EM for the best details. Here's an example: http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...sor-21933.html
No, I don't believe that there's any way of getting around the 5-wire O2 sensor; but the good news is that it may work just as well in a used CX manifold. Frankly, I'm finding more options that way without the frustration and exclusivity of searching for a VX exhaust manifold.
