You can Re-pin the connectors at the Ecu to make the rears run as fronts, but that seems like more work than you want to do. Easiest way would be to leave the rear 02's in and just turn them off using whatever handheld/tuning software you want to use.

I may be mistaken, but I don't believe you can turn off the O2s with any hand held tuner. I beloved you need HP tuners or EFI live.

I suppose you could drill a small hole right before the sensor in your exhaust, like 1/8" about in inch before it. That would suck in just enough air to trick something..

i have been running without my rearr 02's since march. Ran fine with the ses light on. Still got 19-23 mpg. I just tuned them both out yesterday with hp tuners that I bought a little while ago. I priced for a tuner to tune them out, it was $100. You can by the simulators for $40 each from Tick Performance.

The rears are really only ensuring the cat's are working. They play no part in fueling. If you do not hook them up you will get a DTC and that's about it. They are really only there for the folks in states that care.
