Default air, egr, o2 sensors, is that it?

i have an '02 SS with a 6spd. by the end of this year hopefully i'll be getting a good set of LT headers w/an off-road y-pipe and a magnaflow cat-back. after that i'm going to get it tuned at a dyno. if i get the A.I.R. code deleted along with the o2 sensors and the egr(if my '02 even has egr) is that everything? and are there any negative drawbacks i should know about before getting all this deleted? and where i live they dont check for emmissions so legality wont be a problem. thanks[/align]

If you delete the O2 sensors, the car will run poorly or not at all.

you dont need the rears. but you have to run the fronts unless you tune the car as speed density. some guys swear by it, personally I would tune the MAF so the O2's dont F with ur tune and leave em run

alright, so i plan on getting some LT's, ORY, and a cat-back,and taking out my AIR and the rear o2 sensor. then i'll get it tuned and get them to delete the AIR and rear o2 sensor codes. does this sound alright?

sounds right. u dont even need to tune out the codes if you dont want to. some people just live with the SEL light.
