it wont affect the sniffer test becuase the rear 02 sensors just moniter the catalytic converter efficiency. however if you test it in an area where they hook up a scan tool and moniter the voltage levels it might be a tip off to them, besides if you put your stock H pipe back on than you might as well install the O2 sensors
