I think you mean CO, not CO2. Carbon monoxide (CO) is deadly at
concentrations as low as 0.05%. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is also toxic,
but only at concentrations above 5%.

Juan,
It's CO not CO2 we worry about. The detectors are CO detectors not CO2.
As to exhaust extensions, been there done that. (

Now on CO2, its not just in sealing the cabin to engine gaps, but where the exhaust comes out. For $20.00, take your muffler to the nearest Muffler shop and they will make a bolt on Muffler extension that pushes the heat as well as exhaust away from Cabin floor.
Finally for $8.00, get your self a CO2 decal detector.
427JV out!

The other area that you may want to look at is
the rear fuse access pane and hinge point. The engine exhaust blows straight past it and may leak back into the fuse.

I removed the flap handle bracket from the floor of my 701 when I put in an electric system. I plugged the open rivet holes but was short one 5/32 rivet so that hole was opened. I had forgotten about it. I could smell exhaust when flying. I plugged that ONE hole and the exhaust smell went away.
