Update

Missed the mail man for my v-band so i couldnt switch that out.

Decided to go to my vw junkyard and pick up valve cover + intake manifold for $40 and try to wrinkle it...here is the result

Valve cover has been cured in oven, intake manifold has not

Valve cover

intake manifold

Ive been thinking...
With the mafless file the readings are based on both o2 sensors. I have a wayne angle block on mine which makes my rear o2 further back. Would this casue the readings to be off and idle bounce? Someone concur with me!

 Re: (Dub-Nub) »« »

with your custom file, you shouldn't get any CELs related to emissions stuff... so running a wayne angle block wouldn't be needed.
i'm not sure about the idle-bouncing theory,.. but it'd definitely be worth taking the angle block out anyway to find out.

well i just htink having the sensor back will either delay the readings or give less readings then it should.

The primary O2 does the thinking, the wayne angled O2 should be fine.

 Re: (Dub-Nub) »« »

having the sensor spaced will definitely "delay" the readings. that's why performing the mod on a non-catalyst car will almost always get rid of the cel. now that your software doesn't care about emissions,.. pull that o2 spacer outta there.

2nd 02 sensor doesn't do anything. It just makes sure that the catalytic converter is working. You could take it off completely and there wouldn't be a difference in performance.

I've even had poppy seed bagels and bagels and lox with capers. I'll pit your onion bagel against my plain bagel with cream cheese any time anywhere, just meet me halfway.

Got a new front o2 sensor from Bosch. That didnt help anything. I am quite certain its an exhaust leak now. unfortunetely Integrated engineering doenst have the v-band gaskets in stock so i gotta wait 2 weeks for them to arrive

On a mafless file having a leak before the front 02 sensor would be comparable to having a leak anywhere in the intake tract or charge piping with a file that uses the maf.. I would put money on the pre 02 exhaust leaks being the issue.
