I want to run a test pipe on my ka24de. Do I need an o2 sensor for it and will there be any problems? Will I need a resistor?

plug it in! they are there for a reason. go to a shop get a 12 1/2" pipe bent with two flanges on it and ask them to weld a o2 sensor bung on the testpipe near the same location the original one was, it's not that hard. 
EDIT:
P.S. where are you from in canada?

if you have an exaust leak before the test pipe it will make a difference on how well it reads the exaust gas.
