I would think you are going to be fine though.

You can run your car without any O2's if you're still on the stock cam. Just don't go crazy with any WOT runs or anything like that. The PCM has provisions built in if they fail. But, the more major mods you have, the less accurate those provisions are. Anyone who knows what they're doing with EFILive or HPTuners can back me up on this...
