2016 Ford Mustang Premium 5.0
I have a 2016 mustang gt premium with a tune, catless, lth , double h pipe and flame kit. Recently, some issues at idle and driving. The car feels like it’s not holding enough power and it wants to shut off for the lack of better terms. The car will sit at or around 2k rpms while driving. I have to really floor it in order to get over 2k rpms. As now as I’m flooring it jerks as getting to higher rpms. YouTube and google shows results of a bad o2 sensor bank 2 sensor 1. The fuse was checked and it’s fine. What alternatives can I take to fix the dreading issue?

I would be more worried about why you are in ignition failure.

why are the coils throwing codes? when is the last time you did spark plugs? Have you tried changing the 02 sensor?

have you changed any of the drivetrain recently? done any other changes recently? clutch or flywheel? I'm asking because of the misfires,

Not really my cup of tea, but the kids seem to like it!
wouldn't it be cheaper to just join the navy? :)

Any guess whether there actually is a fuel sprayer in the exhaust after the cats? Or do they do this thru shooting raw fuel and just turning off spark?

We used to add a spark plug along with a coil to spark it and just cut ignition then pump fuel using our foot, when ign was cut spark signal was sent to the coil and plug in the exhaust which lit off the fuel.

I used a windshield washer tank and pump and injected fuel into the pipe just before the added spark plug. This let me send flames several feet past the bumper and did not have to shut off the engine.

Was a great way to stop tailgaters.
