The VX only came with one catalytic converter and the o2 sensor goes right on top of it, about 3" from the head, the header you have is most likely causing the exhaust pulses to just pound that o2 sensor to death, it's not tuned for a engine that size that is turning that slow, they are a sensitive o2 sensor that doesn't last long with over sized or leaky exhaust.
