like mike above said...you can add o2 sensor bungs.
about a mounth ago i put a 2 into 1 from a 2010 on my 2008.
i plugged the 12mm o2 sensor bungs by the converter and added the 18mm bungs. once my old headpipe was off i marked on the new headpipe where the bungs where placed...the front pipe was kind of easy cuz it's pretty much straight forward...but the rear pipe is a lil tricky cuz my old pipe went behind the trans cover...the new one curves around the front of the trans cover and you don't want to put that new bung too low or you won't be able to install cuz the sensor will hit the transmission. put the 2 sets of pipes next to each other and you'll get the idea. if you look at the front bung you'll notice it's a 45 degree at the pipe. i found some o2 bungs on ebay. i used a curved seated bung on the rear pipe cuz it sits on the rounded surface of the pipe better then the flat seated surface.
the biggest thing that i needed was a new transmission mounting bracket pn#65678-09. under $5.00.
reason, the 08 and older pipe has a clamp that goes around the front pipe then has a bolt that connects to the trans bracket...
now with the 09 and newer, the rear pipe curving in front of the trans, you now have 2 pipes where only 1 used to be. the old clamp has been replaced w/a built-in bracket right on the headpipe which mates up w/the new trans bracket. w/out new trans bracket, they won't mate up.
i parked my scoot next to my buddy's 2010 and just looked it over till i figured out what needed to be done.
sounds like you want to do what i did? i too have the pcv w/at and was able to keep it.
good luck...let me know if i can help.
