O2 Sensors and OffRoad Y Pipe HELP!!!

I am ordering a stainless works offroad Y pipe from Summitracing, and I have just a few questions on it. WHat do I do about the fromt O2 sensors, does it have a hold in the pipe already for it to go into? And I am putting O2 Simulators in the rear, and once i put the simulators in, then what do I do with them? I've never done anything with an offroad Y pipe before and wondering what I need to do?

I assume you still have the stock exhaust manifolds? The two pre-cat O2 sensors will stay where they are, on the exhaust manifold.

Yeah I have stockers for now. I'm just 16 and learning about my Z still. Do I need the harness extensions or what do I do about my O2 Simulators. Where do I put those after I put them In place of the O2 sensors?

You do not need an O2 sensor extention wire harness (for pre-cat O2 sensors only) since your pre-cats O2 sensors will stay where they are. You put the O2 sims (need 2) in place of the post-cats O2 sensors, one behind each cat. Just plug then up where the post-cat O2 sensors plug up at. Zip tie it down.

I won't be running any cats, but do I just zip tie them down anywhere but the pipe?

I meant the post-cat O2 sensors is located behind the cats (1 per cat). Ya, secure it down so the O2 sims won't bounce up and down.

If you need instructions on how to do an egr simulator let me know. You may be ok since you dont have headers, but i kept getting an egr code when i installed my ORP.
