Default Need help with o2 sensor totally lost!!

Ok, I have LT's on my car with off road ypipe. I keep throwing a p0160 code. So I go and get a new sensor for bank2 sensor 2, put it on, go to autozone to erase the code and 20 minutes later comes back on. What the hell!! So, now I focus on the o2 extention, possibly bad I get a continouity tester, its all good. What the hell, just for the heck of it I buy another extention, put it on got to autozone to erase the code, comes back on. Whatelse can it be?? I also tried another sensor things maybe the one I have is bad, same thing.

If it is really bank 2 sensor 2, then that is the after cat sensor. With a ORP, you don't have a cat so an O2 sensor will not do you any good in that location. You should be getting Bank 1 sensor 2 codes also. You need O2 sims or edit out the rear O2s.

No, its only throwing a p0160 code thats all. I had FLP turn off the cats with ls1edit, and I have my simms on there still. Im only throwing it on the passeger side, if its because of the off road pipe I should be throwing the code for driver side as well. this is crazy

Then why did you say you went and got a new sensor for bank 2 sensor 2 if you are running sims? I would guess your rear O2s didn't get turned off and you have a bad sim. Try swapping the sims and see if the problem moves to bank 1 sensor 2.
