So look, you probably need two new front o2 sensors.

I'm also going to guess that you are not using cats, and did not bother to buy sims or have them tuned out. You need to either buy sims for the rear or have a local tuner edit the tune in your PCM to ignore the trouble codes that those sensors will produce.

Last of all, it is nitrous, not NOS. So please put down the fast & furious DVD and stop making the rest of ls1 women look bad. K thx.
Kelly for the save!!

I'd also put some of the blame on the dumbass boyfriend, his two biggest bottles of nos done focked things up. lol.

Thanks Again For The Suggestions And Any More Would Be Great.

Thanks Karen
When you go to buy new o2 sensors, try getting some from Advance Auto that have a 1 year warranty, in case for some reason they go bad again. I lost my o2's when I put my headers on...got the Bosch ones from Advance and haven't had any problems.

It sounds like the rear o2 sensors are bad or have been hooked up wrong - because not only are they reading bad, but you said you got a cat low efficiency code as well. I think at this point you should consider having the car tuned by someone. Not only will you walk away with 15 - 20hp more, but you can get rid of all the rear o2/cat codes that you are having.

What kind of high flow cats? Are they clamped on? Could be just exhaust leaks that are not allowing the O2s to get hot enough, fast enough for the pcm. Most likely though, you are running around in open loop fueling-which if untuned as you are is not good for power or gas milage. I would second the advance auto swap out for the fronts and go from there with making sure you have no exhuast leaks.

Im sure a lot of people are taken back the first time they read through keliente's Ring + Pinion install howto. Somehow I had invisioned a man-hating, flannel-clad linebacker based soley on her extensive automotive knowledge. Sorry

EDIT: Just to clarify, Kelienet is far from a flannel-clad linebacker!!! Sorry for any confusion!

I think its actually the forum that does that - when you type a message solely in caps it just capitalizes every word instead.
