02 sensors, CEL's and headers

so i'm running a rrm header, downpipe with a high flow cat and custom exhaust.

i'm still triggering a CEL even with the RRM CEL eliminator

i noticed when i was doing the install the tip of the 02 sensor was pretty black, so is the sensor just dirty and needs to be cleaned or is it blown?


thoughts?

If your o2 sensor was on it's way out you would have been triggering a CEL even before your install. You reset your ecu after the intstll?

What code is it throwing? The header throwing a CEL isn't exactly a new problem. Sometimes I just get tired of fighting them and disable it :P

I've got the OBX header/dp and i've tried everything to get rid of that p0420 code. Tried different combinations of the same fowler rrm uses for there fix, a highflow cat, and a combination of the two. Nothing works for me
