do you have to weld the extenders if you have high flow cats? or was it simply precautionary?

I think i paid like 973 for the headers ceramic coated and the high flow cats. Install was 240 but I had a bad o2 sensor so i had to buy one of those and they are not cheap. Paul at PPE said to put in the extenders even though i put the high flow cats in so i did. I went with the PPE high flow cats since I have the Joe Z race and would have been catless.. Ill post vids as soon as i can
