Default bbk headers

Ok so I just purchased my bbk headers and y pipe and I was under the impression they only had provisions for the upstream o2 sensors but the y pipe has two bungs as well for the downstreams? So does this mean I wont have to tune my rear o2s out? I know they will trip a code due to the cats not being thier but is it worth conecting them or should I just plug the bungs?

You do not HAVE to run them but you will obviously have to plug the holes somehow. We do sell the parts to plug them. You will definitely need a tune for the headers anyway. The tuner should be able to fix the engine light at the same time.

We do offer remote tuning options also, so please let us know if we can help!

I run these headers and I kept my rear o2s plugged in even though they are tuned out. You might have a hard time installing your catback due to the fact that the end of the Y is the same size as the I pipe. What I did was get an adapter and band clamp them together.
