Rear O2 sensor delete Should I choose this option with my tune? The car has a few bolt-ons but it has to pass emissions and inspection... is this really going to affect any of that?

It depends on the type've inspection. If all you have to pass is a sniffer test, then tuners can tune the car to pass emissions fine with just the front O2's. But if the inspection is the type where they also plug into your PCM, if the rear O2's are programmed out then it'll report a "not ready" error for them which is a red flag.
