    Just wondering, does revo stage 2 "disable" your rear o2 sensor. That's what I have heard, but I recently put in a wideband and used the bung that the rear o2 sensor was in,and then threw p1128, and my car went in to limp mode

    The rear 02 sensor should still be installed but the flash disables the codes usually encountered with running an aftermarket exhaust. The sensor is still required for adaptions to fueling.

    The rear o/2 is not used for fueling at all, its there to check on the cat/emissions.

    Get in contact with a revo dealer and ask them if its part lf the standard stage 2 revo tune.

    When i was running revo, the sensor part of the tune was disabled, while the heater checks where not, so it was still required to be plugged in.

    there are other tuning options that will accomodate a test pipe and/or rear o2 delete. the Gonzo software I offer at my shop lets me delete a rear o2 completely.

    The rear 02 sensor is actually used in some applications for backup load calculations and fuel verification.


    Any tuner completely writing it out allowing you to remove it is doing you a disservice, especially on a street car.

    We do not disable the sensor on any of our applications.

    And in some applications where there is no cat fitted, it is absolutely useless.

    Either way, Gonzo Tuning does not offer a rear O2 sensor delete for stock turbo cars. Just a cat delete to be able to use a high-flow cat or test pipe.

    the rear o2 angle spacer got rid of my rear o2 code, even with revo2.
