Default NEED ADVICE ON DECAT!!!!

Hi all, new to scooby net and the scooby world. I have just brought a 2001 bugeye WRX, and would like to decat it. what do people do about the O2/lambda sensors? how do you stop the engine light coming on? does the ecu have to be remapped to the decatted exhaust or can i just put the decats up? thanks.

I've done the same to my 2001 WRX, taking both cats off. The light came on but after a week, then after a few journeys it went off, which apparently happen if u remove only the second cat.
To my joy the light has returned..... I spoke Scoobyclinic I think and they do a CEL lamp fix for £45 fitted plus VAT. (just gotta fund the petrol to get there!!!)
Hope that helps.
