4-wire should be correct.
Can you give us more background on the car? Did you just complete the swap? what ecu are you using? how's the wiring? Did it have a 4 wire when you got it? is there a Check Engine Light? Have you tried replacing the o2 sensor with a brand new one?

It's a jdm b16a
I did the swap, the car is running but yes there is an engine light,
What O2 sensor do I ask for? Having trouble finding one that's long enough to go to spot near cat to plug

So you checked the code and it is definitely the o2?

You may have to get an extension harness. A lot of places have them, google "honda o2 sensor extension harness"

I haven't checked the code but I know it's the O2 sensor as I don't have one hooked up because I can't find the right one lol

Well, if it's just the length of the wire that's not working, then an extension will be all you need

It's that and also confused in which sensor to get?
I'm going to check part source and call Honda to see how much a new one is. What car do I say it's from lol it's a jdm b16a

pull code then come back and update us.
without pulling the code, we cant help you much.
can be multiple codes other than the o2

There are 3 types of honda o2 sensors. 1-wire, 4-wire, and 5-wire. It sounds like you have the proper o2 sensor, the 4-wire. You're saying it's not plugged in, giving you the CEL that you haven't checked. Before you buy another 4-wire o2, buy the extension, which you'll need anyways.

Ok so I just extended the wires myself( the proper way) and it bogs etc at idle. once I unplug it, it's fine.

Now you can check the CEL code to confirm it's the o2 sensor
I'm a D series guy, don't know much about the B's. But if it's a common issue with Skunk2, I believe it. You can't go wrong with an OEM typeR- Honda's quality is better than Skunk2

Ok thanks, I'm just hoping th bore size won't be an issue as I think the s2 intake mani is 68mm
