2) will catless DPs foul my O2 sensors or decrease their lifespan, should i just get new sensors along with the pipe?

3) Should i remove the resonators that are in the mid-pipe section of the exhaust?

any other knowledge on this appreciated.. a guy on here said a catless stock M5 is same as a stage1 with cats... so im just gonna go catless to avoid messing with bmw's stock maps bc i want to stay stock in that area
I gutted my stock downpipes a few months ago with my buddy. Rented a lift in a garage, had torx bits and o2 sensor socket. Took about 5 hours to get the pipes out, gut them and put them back in since the car had been up to operating temps. Overall super happy, and it's not a difficult job at all
