AFAIK, the rear 02's just tell the computer that the CATs are working correctly and that is it. The front 02's are the ones that tell the computer how well the motor is running.

Taking the CATs off should have no negative affect on how the motor runs except for setting off the SES light.

BTW, how do you like the tune so far?

A small piece of black tape should clear up your problem

the way I understand is that it starts throwing more fuel to it when it detects it
somehow to save the cat

I could be wrong though
