I honestly haven't done much research on any boxer engines running a true dual setup. If there is in fact a single o2 sensor stock, I imagine the only way to pull it off would be an X pipe in the middle of the system and to mount the sensor there. Maybe we'll get lucky and see two o2 sensors, but I'm not sure that would happen.
some tuners use only 1 bank for Narrowband o2 for stock ECU. But most use a crossover pipe for 02 as well, but for the main reason of Exhaust scavenging, or quasi-static scavenging effect based on the Subarus firing order.
