Default Header and Midpipe question

Does anyone know if the O2 sensors will still fit if I install MAC longtubes and an SLP catted x pipe? How would my car run if they didn't reach and I installed these parts without the extensions?

I don't believe they will. I know I got 4 new ones when I got my longtubes and 4 also came with this stainless works set I have. Not really sure what it would run like as I have never experienced it myself.

My front o2 sensors reachedmy kooks LT, Ihad to unhang them for them to reach.. My rear o2 sesors did not reach so I drove a few days until brenspeed could give me a new tune that disabled them. The car never thew a code.

get some O2 extension wires, or it will probly give you an emissions code.

I'm pretty sure if he just leaves them off eventually it will throw a code. I assumed he ment until he gets extensions, MIL eliminator or a new tune that disables the rear o2 sensors.

Is there a way for me to disable it myself with the tuner or do I need a tune from someone? You can clear codes with a tuner also right?
