Default problem with my 1999 TA

i have a 1999 pontiac trans am and i brought it from a dealer ship. it already
had a SLP loud mouth exaust and the K & N induction system. i ran it at the track and ran good. then the next week out it through rear O2 codes saying low voltedge. so i replaced them both. it still didnt fix the problem. And it would only though the code on the 4th or 5th pass down the track and it would run 4 tenths in the quarter. So i went to the dyno shop and had him shut the rear O2s off. so i took it to the track and it ran fine. then the next week i took it and the first pass was 13.62 , 2nd pass 13.63, 3rd pass 13.83, then the 4th pass 14.19. so i ran right after that when it was hot and it ran 14.37. i'm not spining because its a auto with mickey tompson drag radials. i dont know if maybe the plugs are bad because i dont know if they have been changed. the car only have 70,000 miles. i was just woundering if any one else has had any of these problems.
