Default My car stinks...again.

Here's the story:
I bought an 01 trans am ws6 in oct. 07. It had a problem with the 02 sensor in bank 1. Problem is, the front two sensors have been deleted. I've replaced the sensor, but it hasnt solved the problem. I have a service engine soon light, and i get crappy gas mileage. Will the ls1 edit help out so that my car doesnt have the code, and will it improve gas mileage? Also where should i get one that is at a good price?

i think you mean the 2 rears are deleted. if the two fronts are deleted you have some serious issues. Believe it should be bank 1 sensor 2 and bank 2 sensor 2 that are most likely deleted. If it is the front two or even the back two and you want them back on, get the pcm flashed.

there is a guy on here selling his ls1edit.. well no it might be something else..
EFI Live maybe... but he is selling it for like 300.. which is not bad.

You can use this with or without codes kicked off.. you will just need to know what you are doing...
