i read on another mazda forum that the ractive header does not come with the 2nd o2 bung. just wondering if this was actually true since i didnt see any posts on this forum about it. and if it is true is there any way i can fix it without taking it down to an exhaust shop to have another one welded on?
 
theres one up for sale in the P5 section with pictures. copied and pasted them for you to see about the o2 bung.

lol, that's the one i just bought. and i guess i'll have to take it down to the shop since i cant find an alternative for the second o2 bung to fix the CEL.
 
you can get a high flow catted midpipe sls makes one with a o2 bung after the cat, this way you dont need the cel eliminator trick. but you need to extend (giggity) the wire for the o2 sensor

i have a ractive header, and i can confirm 100% that there is no 2nd o2 sensor bung. you will need to find an alternate solution for it.

I don't understand why they didn't put the second O2 sensor there in the first place. The way they have it setup now there's no way for the ECU to tell if the second cat is working or not.

the second cat doesnt need to do anything but provide "Extra" cleaning of the exhaust gases.
