O2 Sensors and Catless with tune

I will be running a full catless exhaust with tune to disable the CEL. Would i still even need o2 sensors to be plugged in and installed on the test pipes? I understand i might need the precat o2's but i don't see why i need the post o2's. I would prefer to remove them and plug the test pipes.

Probably better off keeping them in case you fail emissions and have swap in your stock x-pipe or in case you decide to sell the car, you won't have to worry about re-wiring the sensors.

Just my $.02.

My misunderstanding, I took your OP to mean that you wanted to eliminate the sensor wiring.

The Akra GT4 doesn't have post cat sensors.

It's doable, just have to calibrate the software accordingly.

The postcat sensors are not in the test pipes themselves. The pre cat sensors are needed.
