Default New exhaust, couple of questions

Picked up a full BPM GT exhaust system earlier this week.
Split dump, metal cat (midpipe), cannon muffler in full stainless.
Looks really well manufactured!

Any feedback on the 3 sensor bungs shown in the pic?

Basic research suggests (and i could be wrong) that the top bung where turbo meets downpipe wont be used but im curious where the o2 sensor goes (pre cat or in the cat?), and if the other bung will be used?

picked the system up second hand (never used) for $1450 delivered.

so it sounds like there is only the o2 sensor which is post-cat.
looks like i need another plug for bung at the end of the dump.

I believe the dump pipe would be a neutral fit for all wrx/GT forester/RS applications as the pre GD series had the 02 sensor at the top whereas the GT forester/GD series have it towards the end of the 'dump'. A bung in either will suit.

Are you installing it yourself? If not just get your installer to put one in.
