ok, to those who are somewhat less intelligent about car terms, what does the 2nd sensor exactly do.. in lay terms.. 

BUT when people have the capability to tune their cars (with a VAFC or an AEM EMS for example) they can not rely on the stock 02 sensor... so they use a "wide-band" sensor that will tell them precisely how rich or how lean the engine actually is. If you look on most dyno plots you will see two different graphs... one is hp/torque, the other is the air/fuel ratio. A wideband 02 sensor is mandatory for the air/fuel ratio plot on a dyno.
So when headers have 2 bungs... it doesn't mean that you have to use both. Most people only use 1. But the option is there for you to have one sensor used for the ECU, and one sensor used to monitor.

The stock 02 sensor is what is called a "narrow-band" sensor. It is basically capable of telling the stock ECU one of 3 things... rich, lean, and "just right" (aka stoichiometric). If you are not going to modify your car this sensor is MORE than adequate.

wayne, here's a link to my dyno #s with the J's header.
