Another Gt Header question

I know another Gt headers questions. Bare with me I'm a new owner.
I just got this car a few months ago ( 07 Gt ) and wondering about headers. Kind of dont want RIPP's due to them being a little pricey for what they are.
Considering RRE's or OBX long tubes either is fine but OBX's are cheaper and just as good from what I have read on difrent threads on this site. My question is.

If you put OBX LT's on the car what do you do about the 02 sonsors? Can I run a high flow cat or what? I don't wanna trip any check engine lights on or anything. My current check engine light is on beause the freakin cat is already going out at 23K miles might as well F it on taking it to the dealer and put on Tubes.

Well you can't get ripps any more anyway and what do you want HP or TQ because that is the difference in long tubes an short. Rre is faster off the line and longs are faster from a roll. Long tubes will require welding so you can pick what cat if you want or no cat aka test pipe. so in the end price is about the same.

OBX Longtubes if you ever go FI. they sound a little better, imo.

Shorties if you want ease of install and fewer CEL troubles -

BUT if you do get the LTs, you can buy extentions for your o2 sensors so you NO LONGER HAVE TO SOLDER them...you lucky dog, you. All of us w/ long tubes have hacked into our sensors wiring or harness b/c you have to move the o2 sensors further down the pipe.
