Do I need O2 sims or can I delete rear sensor codes?
Does deleting the rear O2 sensors cause any loss in performance or give your pcm false readings. I have the LG long tubes with off-road X-pipe. Let me know what you guys suggest.

you can remove the codes easily with LS1 edit, no need to even buy it. go to a tuner and for $20-30 or what ever you buy him he can do it. So easy to do.

You may have to have the rear sensors deleted or run SIMS, With no CATS and before Predator deleted them I would throw codes all the time - And no there is no power loss with either

I hate to post this but :
Im running the stock senors with my kooks LT header and high flo cats welded to the X-pipe. I have 300 hard fun miles since they where installs, and havent thrown a code..................... yet
Hope posting this doesnt give me bad luck
The tech that installed them said run the stocks to see if they work before buying something else :shocked:

I damaged one of my rear O2 sims when I was driving to the exhaust shop after i installed my headers so I just left them off and had them deleted when I got the car tuned. It did throw codes before getting it tuned. I was throwing lean codes. Kaley
