Default What causes this?

All of a sudden my O2's @ WOT are all over the place.I mean ALL over the place.From .900 to .050 from about 4500 - 5400 in 2nd gear,then it levels out again. Used to be very consistant.Still pulls hard thru that range with no KR,so I know the readings are not correct.Both banks are giving me those readings,so I doubt BOTH O2's went bad at the same time.This is in FTC 22.
ANY ideas would sure be appreciated.

It's probably your ported MAF. Look at this post: https://ls1tech.com/ubb/cgi-bin/ulti...c&f=1&t=002585 This guy gained a ton of HP with proper tuning. His ported ends were really screwing up his AF.

It might be trying to learn the new combo. Try driving around for a few days, and seeing what happens.

Your O2 sensors could be FUBAR...it happens. They are a wear item and need to be replaced periodically.

Well,I've been Atapping the **** out of it the last few days,and as suddenly as this problem came,it left just as suddenly.About the only guess that I have is that maybe some coating came off my new Mac headers & landed on the O2's. <img src="images/icons/confused.gif" border="0">
