Scraped coming out of a parking lot and cracked my exhaust, shop says I need 2 cats, but no emmisions here, and I dont wanna/cant spend the money. I'm close to Summit, and they probly have an off road pipe that will bolt right in, I just need to know the o2 workaround. Does the rear one really matter? Please link any cheats to this.

rear doesnt' matter, you just need a de-fouler which basically tricks the ecu. search for it...

From what I gather the defouler just spaces the sensor outside of the piping, and can also be done with spark plug spacers? So if I straight pipe it, I'll have to plumb these in?

This one? 14mm?

NEVERMIND. Murphy's tried to take me today. Converters are fine, we just popped the pipe back in and tacked it. Now on to the next thing...
