Default SES Light

All, I am new to this sight. I just put headers on my '98 WS6, and removed the cats. I installed some ghost O2 sensors from WS6.com for the rear sensors, and replaced the front O2 sensors. After clearing the codes, and driving about 50 miles, the light comes back on. The code is for the front bank upstream O2 sensor.

Is there any way to keep this light off?! Or should I stop worrying about the light, and just remove the bulb from the dash?

Thanks in advance for the advice!!!

By disabling the rear sensors, do you just mean disconnect them? The sensors I put in the front where the Bosch sensors. I don't know if they were for a vette though.

By tune, do you mean taking the car to have the computer reprogrammed?

no, find someone who can tune your car, and have them go into your computer and disable the rear o2's.

i'm sure the bosch o2's were the vettes...just longer wires really

tune by having someone actually tune the car, ride around for a few hours or what not and configure your computer for your car's optimum performance. that and when you install headers you run a little rich, tuning will help out your gas mileage some.
