exaust 02 sensor question/ pipe poll

first off my question is simple.

If you run a pipe from each header all the way back, use 2 cats, then your left with two pipes and one o2 sensor. Would this not cause a problem with your ecu trying to compensate for only sensing one pipe? Are there any maximas out there with true duals?

I thank you for any input you may give on the subject.

Your engine doesn't give 2 flying a.ss ***** for the rear o2 sensor as long as it reads the required voltage osscilation. If you're so worried, get an o2 simulator...

yea umm if you knew anything about true duals you would know about a cross over pipe ie X or H.
