I was messing with my Xcal 3 and noticed I could turn off the rear O2s. What would be the purpose of doing this? Any benefits?

all the rear o2's do is make sure the cat is there/working. the front o2's are what the engine uses to adjust fuel ect..

Hmm, maybe that explains why my CEL came on again after installing the tune. My rear O2s are on. I should probably turn them off, no?

I would turn them off. I have an H pipe on my 01 GT motor that's in my notch, and I have a CEL. It has the stock tune, so I should prolly get it tuned.
