Tuning question about ebay headers

You have to put in the 02 sensor before the headers are installed, does the tuner have to tke out the 02 sensor to tune or just hook up to it?
I would like to install them without putting in new 02 bungs.
Thanks,
Shawn

no, the tuner does not need to 'hook up' to the O2's. They get what they need from the PCM harness.

since tuners use wideband sensors, I don't know what you mean by "They get what they need from the PCM harness"

Best bet is to have additional bungs installed for the wideband sensors. You can get screw-on caps for the bungs & seal them after the tune.

Maybe moving the o2 sensors would be the easiest if I need to have additional bungs put in anyway. Do they hook up to both sides or just one?
Thanks,

They (tuners) can use tailpipe sensor or remove rear sensor and use rear bung.

I thought that's what they did...when I had my 97 and put Kooks LT's on...I don't think they removed any O2 Sensors while they tuned it...at least I didn't see them doing it...
