Default 02 Sensors

I own a Mac GT Catback dual exhaust and the mac H pipe and the headers are staying stock for now. Do I need o2 sensor extensions if im just eliminating the y pipe and putting the h pipe in its place?

Nope. As long as you just cut between the y-pipe and cats, and you leave the O2 sensors alone and original, you will be fine.

Hard to say, depends on where the new cats are placed exactly. I've heard only 04's usually need them, but not sure exactly. I would say no to start.
