Rear O2 sensor not ready
Rear O2 sensor not ready
I have to get my 2008 SS smogged and the rear O2 sensor and evap shows not ready. In California the evap does not have to be ready. I have a new ZZ crate motor. Previous owner put in a 3" Down pipe. I have tried many drive cycles, I called the previous owner to ask if he disabled the Rear O2 in HP tunes. He can't recall. I looked up the tune and I didn't see it disabled. Here are my choices as I see it , but any advice will be welcomed.
1--replace rear O2
2--Put stock tune back in temporarily
3--Make the O2 "invisible" in HP Tunes ( no idea how to to do this)
If anyone has had this problem your input would truly be appreciated.

It's a down pipe with no cats and an extended bung for the rear O2 sensor? This is what happens with those. Put cats on it so the sensor completes its readiness check. I had this problem every year with NC inspection and had to swap in the cats to pass. I got tired of it and just left the cats on. The planet will thank you.
