QTP Dual Cutout ORY Hey was looking to pick one up. My only question is this
Will the cutouts being open eat through o2 sensors from being open all the time throwing codes and such, and will it also make the car run really lean when open, and rich when closed.
Well will it really mess with the tuning of the car is I guess what I'm asking. Would it be more a hastle than a reward

I'd worry less about the tuning and O2 sensor stuff and worry more about ground clearance. 
I had that Y. It cleared better than my ol' X-pipe, but it's still a bit lower than the standard QTP ORY at the cutouts.
It's a neat novelty. Did it once. Wouldn't do it again. 1 cutout in the I is plenty.

Well I have one in the I-pipe right now, and had duals. I can't go with duals again because of reasons. I need cutouts so that I can be quiet or loud if I want too. I have one in the Ipipe

Tuningwise, there's nothing to worry about with dual cutouts open/close.
O2 sensors will be fine.

I really apreciate the imput here guys, keep it coming.
I just keep hearing the if I drive it like 90% of the time with the cutouts open I will fry my o2's or run so lean I will blow up my engine. Just wondering about that. The clearance isn't really the issue.

Only thign affected was where TQ peaked in the rev range. Peaked sooner, with a lower value with the cutouts closed. Peaked higher in the rev range, with a higher value with them open.
The Dual Cutout ORY provided about 1/4" better clearance than my TD's. I honestly would not use the dual cutout Y on a lowered car.
