Default off road y pipe and o2 sensors/sims

im throwing on a bassani y pipe tomorrow that i've had for a while. it came with 3 bungs for 02 sensors and two of which arepluged. do i just put on 02 sensor in and put 2 sims in?
drivers side o2 bung is pluged, passenger side front is ready for 02 sensor and the rear passenger side where teh cat would be is plugged...if that helps. i gotta know cause im skipping 02 sims and getting a dyno tune to eliminate the o2 sensors in 2 weeks
thanks
Travis

just make sure that the front o2 sensors are plugged in and run o2 sims for the rear and plug up the b1s2/b2s2 bungs if need be.

You'll still throw a code as your rear 02 sensors will pick up that you have removed your cats. The 02 sims make the car "think" that the cats are still there and functioning.

might as well leave them in you can always keep the bunghole for a wideband , and if the wideband has the option of outputting a 0-1V signal you could datalog (efilive/atap?) the wideband along with everything else. Many widebands offer this option now.

y2k i know what the sims do. Im just trying to save some extra dough cause im getting the car dyno tuned after the new year. If i just leave the plugs in, do i just need to take out and off the O2 sensors and tape up the connectors under the car?
thanx
