Not useing the the two rear 02 sensors or 02 sims..... Im in the process of looking for a offroad Ypipe, they are insanly expensive so i was thinking about having one just custom made and if i went that route i probabily wouldnt use the back 02s that go into the cats. But my question is, would it affect how the car runs at all w/o the back to 02s there?

Re: Not useing the the two rear 02 sensors or 02 sims..... The car will keep a constant Service Engine Soon light on if you remove the rear O2s and do not use O2 simms. You can however, get the rear O2 sensors disabled with LS1-EDIT tuning.
Without the rear O2s functioning (or O2 simms), the car may be put into a limp mode and run poorly, as well as get worse gas mileage.

I'd get one anyway or disable it through LS1Edit... plus a bonus of no SES

Re: Not useing the the two rear 02 sensors or 02 sims..... I actually havent found any Off road Ypipe yet that will work with the shorty headers or even a stock manifold which is what i need.... But the Ypipes for long tubes are like $300.....

Re: Not useing the the two rear 02 sensors or 02 sims..... For the track I had Extentions made to replace the cats & I ran it with simms. But when I replaced the stock cats with Random Tech Hi Flo I could stay legit with minimal power difference. On the Dyno it was 3hp (big deal).

Random Tech and Mac also make aftermarket Y's for manifolds and shorties.
The Y for LT's is very different than the Y for shorties.
