    Thumbs up

    To turn off REAR O2's, simply go to the "DTC" section (Diagnostic Trouble Codes) and change anything that says oxygen sensor Bank 1 and Bank 2, Sensor 2 to "No Error Reported".

    It's over-fueling because of how LEAN the engine is now with headers and no cats. It is overcompensating by adding fuel. What you need to do is TUNE the truck now. Once VE and MAF are tuned PROPERLY, the mileage will return (if not rise), and the performance will also increase.

    Plenty of reading about tuning that you can do, right on HPTuners site. It's definitely time consuming, but the end results are usually worth the time invested. There's also plenty of HPT tuning guides scattered all over the internet.

    Here's a nice one:

    Good Luck to you.

    hypothetically of course....

    Obviously not a visual, but if your state has the test where it's simply just checked for DTC's, you're good to go...

    I used to love pulling into the emissions station in my old 2000 SS Camaro with the cam loping and no codes....PASS...lol

    Hypothetically, of course.

    ....ok, so the headers with offroad pipe will not need to be changed whenever I drive "onroad" THANK GOD


    I've been trying to get an answer for that for 3 years. Allen always dodges that one.

    If you enable the SES you will be able to pass all the test that are performed during start up.

    Step 2. get a hammer.
    Step 3. torch it.
