do you have a single wire o2 or a heated 4 wire one?

it might be because your longer tubes allow cooling quicker and don't help as much with heating the o2 but this is easily fixed by upgrading to the 4 wire heated o2 sensor

where the 4 wires before the long tube? also did you have to do anything to the wires when you put in your tubes?

Does it do that on both or just one? I've noticed my driver side will read less than 200 mv and it dumps a lot more fuel in on that side. If you are driving the car and they're showing low then I'd see about replacing them.

Did you ever figure this out. My car with scanmaster also seems to give weird low 02 readings sometimes at wot when it stores it.

I have replaced fuel pump, fuel filter, fuel reg and flushed out injectors. Still same ,also see some knock retard that makes no sense either.
