Pacesetter LTs

Hey guys i need some help here, i just installed some pacesetter lts everything went real well (only took 3 hours) and i didnt break anything. I still got to get my true duals ran next week, but my prob is i went for a test drive with open headers and the car seem to be missing and running bad, i pulled the front plugs on the drivers and pass side, the drivers side was solid black and the pass side was clean as could be, threw a misfire code, egr code, and a o2 heater code, but i got race headers so the AIR and EGR was taken off, will this clear up after i get my exhaust on or is something wrong somewhere? Merry Christmas!

you're going to need to get the air/egr tuned out or you'll be pulling the same codes over and over. you should be ok once you finish the exhaust up.

if its throwing a missfire code double check your wiring, plugs, wires, coil pack connections etc...yes it probably will throw some egr codes & maybe some front o2 codes since your running on open headers, but i really shouldnt throw any missfire codes for no obvious reason.

Double checked all connections, i put in new plugs and wires during the install, so all that stuff is good, i guess running open headers could make it run real rich but its only effecting the drivers side, could i've messed up an O2 sensor running with open headers?

i ran open headers for about 1/2 a day w/o any problems engine wise. only thing that happed was when the car was at a certain rpm it shook real bad causing my ttops to unlock. one actually flew off on my way to getting my y put on.
