ok so i have a 2000 xj with the dual cats design and 4 02 sensors. my plan is to purchase Banks torque tube headers (because they seem to be one of the only companies that will mate up with that design). i also wanted to remove or at least delete the 2 cats by either cutting them out and replacing with reg. pipe or hollowing them out and putting a pipe on the inside so they resemble what theyre supposed to be to pass inspection. my question is since i do have 4 o2 sensors. is there a way to use a wideband 02 setup or something of the sort to fool the stock computer into thinking or even adjusting to the newly acquired setup so i don't throw an engine code? i'm not knowledgeable when it comes to all the computer setups as all the xjs before that i had were renix and eliminating the EGR and cat on them made a big difference in performance and mileage. i'd like to build this motor in the future and the wideband already in place would help that but i just wanted some input from people that have done something slightly similar so i know what i'm thinking of doing is either just plain dumb or will make my setup ready for more in the future. so lets get this going!
also on a side note, has anyone done a port and polish on a newer jeep and saw improvement? at least doing the exhaust side cause there seems to be a bit that can be opened up.
