Is this the only reason for the CEL to come on (the rear O2's)? I ASSume that there are other codes that will trigger it and would prefer to see those codes to take care of any issues. I also ASSume that the fuel trims are just fine, since no codes are being thrown. I am talking about my set up, which is the JBA high flow cats. Not those running off road pipes and no cats.
