Default Please Help!

I've had my long tubes and ory-pipe on my truck for a while. Since i took my cats off my fuel mileage has decreased. I do have a Nelson tune and it was suppose to fix the issue. Is there any way or tricks to get my fuel mileage back to the way it was with cats? I am still throwing codes also! Thanks

54 and 60 are rear O2 codes, looks like he forgot to set them to "no error reported". As for the 442 it's an EVAP small leak detected problem.

just a quick question, do you have the rear O2's plugged in at all?
