Rear mount turbo with stock cats- Wideband?

Ok couldn't find this anywhere, I just picked up an AEM wideband for a really good price, I know it has to go after the turbo but how will this affect my readings running the cats? or should i just have them gutted and be done with it

i can only assume that you need the cats for emmissions purposes

The cats wont affect the WB enough to make any different (at most, it's .1-.2 difference in AF) I ran mine with stock cats and WB after the turbo for 20k+ miles before i got a ORY.
