Default Is it possible to turn off a CEL with one o2 sensor

I have a 94 eg wit a d16y8 swap. The upper o2 snesor is removed i guess since it has headers, will i always get a CEL with only one, how can i fix this? i bought the car swapped, and this is my first honda so sorry for the noooob quest...

Go to a local automotive store and buy an O2 bung (they tend to call it a nut), drill a hole on your header to match the size of the O2 sensor bung, weld or have an exhaust shop weld it on there for you. screw in your secondary O2 and problem solved. No more CEL.

Just an FYI. I don't know why people buy bungs online for $5-10 a piece when the automotive stores sells them for under $1.50 a piece.
