pacesetter headers hey everyone i have a 96 formula bird and im getting pacesetter long tube headers and matching Y-Pipe. does anyone now where i can get some rear Dummy O2 sensors for the Y-Pipe. i need it to still pass emissions and im getting the Y-Pipe that replaces the Cats Too, so thats why i need dummy o2 sensors. it would be alot of help. Thanks!!!!!! if it helps to i need to make sure the headers and y-pipe will fit with my magnaflow cat-back exhuast. again thanks for the help.

you need emisions your going to need a cat and also it wont pass inspection it will fail the visual once they put it up on a rack. If you want to go with no cats then take air and egr out no need for it. Im not sure how obd2 works but I think you mite want to front o2s so it can adjust air fuel accordingly and just have the rear o2 burnt out.

I don't know if this works on headers or not... But I know that with most applications, one can do the spark plug anti-fouler trick and you don't really NEED o2 Sim...
does that trick work in this scenario?
that being buy a set of anti-foulers, drill one of them hollow with a 3/8" drill bit, plug it into your 02 bung, screw the non-hollow one onto the hollow one(they come in sets of two) and then screw your o2 extension harness into the none hollow anti-fouler... I did this on my gtp when I went with a 3" downpip/highflow cat... and it cost me $3.99 as opposed to $90... Once I cleared the codes, they never came back, I was skeptical at first and asked "how in the hell will that work?"... went out on a limb, tried it, and i'll be damned if it didn't work...
of course you would need the o2 bungs to be there, which I don't know if they are...

the "ghetto sim" as its called...
and some pics I made when I did it:
(the drilled one -vs- the none drilled one)
the way the piece should look that is to be screwed into your o2 bung
the bottom view
as gay as that looks, if freakin works, I had a SES light for MONTHS, tried that and went over a year without it(before selling the car, it never came back on)
