Default Help with EX header install on DX

My friend purchased a Greddy header for an EX, even though he has a DX HB. I know that the header bolts right up to the engine and piping w/o any modification, because I've seen it done on a DX coupe.

How hard is it to make an extension for the O2 sensor? Can you just splice the wires yourself, or is it better to get a longer set of wires?

Are you running a cat now with your setup? I know that the O2 sensor is before the cat... are you getting a continous CEL?
