Default O2 sensors...

So this is from the gotts 02 mod how to:

A clogged cat does not, so the sensor should pick up on that. I had 2 jeeps that the cats got clogged so I cut them off and did nothing with the o2. Had a code all the time but didnt effect anything at all.

All the antifouler does is keep the sensor clean, hot, and out of the unburnt exhaust. This way you dont get a code.
If I plan on putting long tube headers onto my 4.6 4wd, what happens to the second set of 02 sensors? I'm looking at the pacesetter long tubes and they already have the nuts installed for the front two o2 sensors.
So do the second set of them just hang there or what? Is that going to throw a code too?

Unless you have someone weld in new bungs, you won't use them. And then you'd still have to do the gotts O2 mod. Your best bet is to buy a tuner and have them turn them off. No need for them if you don't have catalytic converters. I don't have mine even plugged in. They're sitting in my tool bag right now lol.

I'm not sure the pace setters fit the 4x4. I've heard the front driveshaft is in the way.
