Default Few quick questions about Milltek Downpipes

First off, the knowledge that I have about exhaust comes from my previous car, a 2000 Camaro SS. I had longtube headers and a larger y pipe and a nice catback. The 02 sensors were installed in the header flange. Now, if I were to upgrade to some nice Milltek Downpipes, are there 02 sims that come with that, or is that on another part of the car? Also, will we pass emissions with downpipes on? Lastly, how long has install time been for these? Just gauging so I know where to take my car if I end up getting them.
I am taking my car in for my 5000 mile checkup next week, and I am going to talk to my service rep and see what they have to say about downpipes. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Default I am wondering about the emmisions question as well...

They should since 90% of emssions stuff happens at the engine level. The way you want to install them is remove the connectors from the top in the engine bay then get under the car. Remove the cat back firts then take the 2nd o2's out of the down pipes. next loosen the falange up by the headers. once all the bolts are off remove the hander bolt from the side of each down pipe. Then snake the down pipe down being mindful of the O2. Then do that in reverse. Its easy if all the parts work etc...

Default So the O2 connectors do go into the Downpipes?

Can you just reuse the stock o2 connectors in the new Milltek DP, or do you have to buy new ones? Just gettin all the info before I decide to purchase. Thanks.
