First ride on turbo RX1 and Boss seat started on fire

[rx1mountain]

First ride on the turbo Rx1 I bought and the Boss seat started on fire and burnt most of the foam underneath. There was a heat blanket on top of the exhaust pipes. Anyone else ever experience this and if so what did you use for insulation between the seat.

Did you have the metal cover over the turbo (rear mount I`m assuming)?

Yes metal cover was over the turbo and there was some heat mat material over the exhaust pipes coming from the header. It looks like it started towards the front wonder if maybe it had something to do with the A/F gauge wiring that is right in this area under the seat?? I am going to tear into it tonight to see if I can find what ignited it.

Looks like it was the oxygen sensor grounding out and igniting the seat.... Anyone have a bosch part number to use for wideband O2 sensor?
