Tho thats where i ran into a mishap. My o2 sensor threads on the S pipe was gummed up.. i could not for the life of me get it out (even rounded the damn thing). So i had to take it in to a local muffler shop, have the sucker removed, bought a new O2 sensor (flippin $100--- 130 at the dealer!). it sucked. However, I seem to be CEL free for now. (so that extra cash spent was b/c my sensor was ****ed from the factory.
I probably received the #3 of the strup headers.
Awesome man!! Glad u love it. Spread the word.. Get it dynoed

It wasnt a bad sensor. the threads were warped, and it was stuck. the warranty wont cover it unless it was malfunctioning... then they would want to know why i wanted to take it off in the first place.... im pretty sure they wont like seeing what ive done to it now!

Use the same gasket you have - A new car wouldnt need a new gasket (hence the new gasket that you currently have on your car) hehe
