if it's an o/r prochamber then yea, that could be causing your problem. when u have an o/r midpipe the 02 sensors throw a code because they aren't recognizing the rear cats. this could cause you car to run lean, therefore your cars ecu will dump a **** load of fuel into the motor because it thinks the car is running lean (which it could be) and it will actually be running rich because of this and cause the car to run like crap. but just do yourself a favor and buy mil's

today a friend of mine did something with a computer and told me my # 5 coil needs to be changed, so i changed it and the car was all good for about 5 minutes and then started doing the same thing again.

The rear O2 sensors have NOTHING to do with engine control, all they do is monitor the efficiency of the catalytic converters...

I thought about buying mils but was informed that the mils would be a short time fix. I spent the extra hundred bucks and bought a tuner. Haven't had any issues what so ever...
