Default PaceSetter LT, Catted Y-pipe or O2 sims?

I just ordered a set of Pacesetter LT's(98-99) and I am a little confused on wether to buy an ORY, exts, and O2 sims, or a catted Y-pipe. another 98 F-body owner told me he has had lots of bank 2 SES codes throw with his O2 sims and recommends a catted Y-pipe(i guess like the one TSP sells). Just looking for some insight on the matter. thanks.

You can get it turned off with a tune and wont need to have the simms at all. Simms don't read any different from day to day. He is throwing those codes because of the actual front O2 sensors acting up.

you can use bosch 131111's instead of extensions, recommended if you have more than 50k miles on the o2's. Pm me if you need a set of bosch 13111's

good advice...these are Rear Vette 02's with a wider heat range...I have them and no codes for me. # 13111 [he added 1 too many 1's in the first part]
