So when I got my headers installed, that computer hookup wasn't working and couldn't check the SES light. Come to find out, the fuse needed reset. So after I did that, I was able to get a scan. Both bank 1 and bank 2 o2 sensors are not communicating with the ECU. I'm bringing it back to the shop so they can verify their work and troubleshoot the issue. Also does anyone know if Uprev allows you to play with those sensors at all? I was going to buy it when I installed the rest of the stuff, but if this issue pursues, I might have to get it early. Any suggestions?

Here is the original cold start video I took. The exhaust is so loud it shakes the tin roofing on the parking and I feel it thump in my chest.

So tomorrow I'm going to try the steel wool method to try and get the CEL to go away. It's definitely running rich and my mileage is down by a couple mpg. I can smell the gas in the exhaust fumes. It should quiet it down as well. It's been idling around 900-1200 rpm burbling and popping as it sits there. The mechanic is also going to reinspect his work and check to make sure that the 02 sensors didn't go bad. Crossing my fingers.
