Well it might be the O2 sensor, but its not because of the test pipe. The second O2 sensor doesnt effect the A\F mixture at all. It is pretty much there to throw a code when the cat goes bad. The first O2 determines the A\F mixture. But it is located before the cat so it would not be effected by the test pipe. You may not pull hard after 4 or 5 K because when you lower the backpressure on a NA car it doesnt necisarrily increase HP, and in some cases it can decrease HP. If you want to check the O2 sensor pull it out and check too see what it looks like. It usually will be extremely white if its bad. Good luck.
