Do the O2 sensors on the Box use standard threads? I assume they are std Bosch units.

The other option is to use an O2 simulator, but it looks like there aren't any available for Porsche yet: http://www.o2simulator.com/

Surely you are joking right??
Never mind the CEL... If the primary O2 sensors are not in and working a Porsche will run like dog doo. Kinda defeats the purpose of adding headers don't you think?
