Default kamikaze headers with one o2 sensor port

hey guys what up... i have a 97 civic hatchback and i just purchased the kamikaze headers for it now my stock headers have 2 o2 sensor ports but the headers i have only have one sensor port. out of the two sensors i have one o2 sensor goes right above my cat and one is right below the cat. do i need to drill a whole in the pipe of my new headers or is it cool to only hook up one.

i appreciate your feedback im new at this stuff and so far i love it thanks again

i bought a kamikaze header for my 97 dx coupe, it has two O2 sensor holes, youre going to have to run without a cat or use an aftermarket one. eventhough i had both sensors plugged, my check engine light was on, coz the secondary sensor wasn't generating enough voltage or something. it worked ok though and i did feel the diffence. but went b16a2, no need for this header.

Kamikaze 4-1 header for sale will fit 96-98 civic dx/cx/lx
no dents or scratches- $50 socal

on your stock exhaust manifold the 2nd o2 sensor was hooked up behind the cat, u will have to do the same if u don't want to throw any codes, get an aftermarket cat and install the 2nd o2 senor behind it if u wanna be legal. ur car will run fine with just 1 o2 sensor but i would just do it right and get a cat.

oh yeah that kamikaze header probably isn't the best one if u r planning to stay n/a, its supposed to be great for superchargers though.

I have a solution for you go to http://www.diablomotorsports.com and get a O2 simulator. It works perfect, I have a 96dx hatchback with a brospeed header and no check engine light. It does require that you solder like 5 wires inline to your ECU. No big deal though
