Codes came back on after replacing O2 sensors Hey everyone I had an issue I need some help with.
I've installed TSP 1 7/8 LT's on my 99 T/A, so obviously my rear 02 sensors are non existant. I got a CEL code for the front ones, so I figure with 160k miles on the engine it was time to replace. I replace them and the codes went away but didn't feel like it ran any different. After not even a week the codes for both sides are back on I think it is P0160. Any suggestions on why this might have happened?

It's probably not the sensor, (especially your new one) for that code: http://www.obd-codes.com/p0160
First thing would be to check exhaust leaks and the wiring. A lot of folks melt the wires when changing out the exhaust components.
