Xtra o2 only if you plan on using a wideband, otherwise no need.

I'm not using a wideband and I got the extra one. The only reason I got the extra one is so my tuner could use his wideband to tune my car.

Yea, essentially if you think you may ever use a wideband, get the extra bung. Plugs are cheap for when you don't have anything hooked up.

It comes with one for ur o2 sensor But u have the option to add an extra for the wide band. Normal tunes are usually around 250.

Oh and if you get the extra o2 bung make sure to get an o2 bung plug so you can plug it up while you aren't using it.

You don't need the extra one unless you plan to use a wideband. My car didn't through codes with my downpipe. It did when I added then header though

Im not sure. I don't think it will. And if ur cel comes on it's not harming ur car

So your car isn't tuned already?

Ya so you can use the wideband. And it's best to get tuned because it brings out the full potential in ur bolt ons. If you don't ur not going to see much of an increase in power
