Defouler question

I installed a catless downpipe and obviously threw a CEL and I know I need a defouler but will I require two or just one on the O2 sensor that is closer to the turbo, and what size restrictor fitting do I put in the Vibrant defouler with a catless downpipe, I would assume the one that lets the least amount of exhaust in? Forgot to mention I am in NY and need to pass emissions so can’t just have my tuner turn it off.

I used the Vibrant with the middle insert with my 100 cell catted DP. DNA one looks to be about the same thing. The vibrant might be a little thicker I have your duty. Like you said it only goes on the lower sensor. Once installed position the defouler so it has a slightly upwards angle. So no liquids or anything can build up around sensor.

Ok so I’m getting confused when they say lower O2 is that the one closer to the turbo or the one literally lower closer to where the downpipe meets the exhaust
