Nothing about High Back pressure...only high resistance within the sensor (an electrical component)

The high back pressure one I can't find so I'm going to get it faxed/emailed tomorrow. The chances of 2 O2 sensors being bad on a brand new vehicle I think are pretty slim. And considering both codes keep coming back, even with the one that got replaced, I don't think the sensors are bad. Just maybe picking up readings they don't normally see (i.e. more flow and then all of the sudden less when I flip the switch).

Besides if the sensors were bad then I'd be throwing codes no matter what. I've been driving it for 4 months with the adaptive exhaust disabled and haven't had a single code. As soon as I flip the switch on I'll throw a code. If I reset it and then leave it on I won't throw any code. Keep in mind it'll take ausually a few miles before it goes from pending to CEL. I watch the whole sequence on my scan gauge. Its fine, I just leave it off like I've said in prior posts and then I don't have any codes. There isn't a time when I want it quiet. Not sure why I even put a switch in other than I had a spare switch and wire in my garage so the cost was $0. A simple fuse pull would have been just as good in my case.

Nothing pops up to tell you "Hey you blew a fuse for the exhaust"...come one use some common sense...Again not trying to beat you up...but someone is blowing smoke up your but..Oh BTW Corvettes use this same exhaust........
