Did you eliminate the rear o2 sensors?

W/O checking my '96 manuals, is this an O2 code? How long has the car been up and running since the exhaust upgrades? The reason I ask is this. On my '95, the rear O2 can be eliminated W/O consequence. This is not the case on your '96 though. You would have to use O2 sims or have them programmed out. Anyhow, one time I was throwing an intermittant O2 code and come to find out, I'd accidently hooked the rear O2 connector to a forward O2.

Thanks for the info. I'll check with Pete at DRE - he did the install - tomorrow and get him to program them out. BTY - they did a beautiful install and I would recommend his shop to anyone.
