Headers with no emissions fittings mean theres no hole for the air or egr, it will throw a code but you can get it deleted fairly easily. Although if you have to pass smog in CA you will fail the test without air or egr, or cats for that matter

UH you better check the base regulations.. im at beale.. and if you bought a car and want to register it on base.. or keep it registered on base for that matter, they will require you to smog it. Although ACC has the no base sticker policy.

you are going to need your front o2 sensors, so your going to have to get o2 extensions for them. the rear o2's are the ones you don't need. "race style" headers means theres no fittings for AIR or EGR and an off road y means there's no cats or rear o2 sensors.
