O/R Xpipes have the bungs for the 02`s. You need them. If you dont have the 02`s, your car will run like $hit.

Well it sounded like you wanted to take your 02`s off completely from how I read your post. [&:]
So as long as you have a tuner, Yes, turn off the rear 02`s. It wont hurt anything.
You didn`t say anything about having a tuner.

I am really happy with my Stainless steal VRS X-pipe. Before this one ihad a BBK o/r X-pipe and although it sounded mean as hell, it had a little too much rasp. I have heard good things about prochambers as well.
