The rear O2's dont control how rich your car runs. The front ones do along with the rest of the sensors. The only thing the rear ones do is let you know if the cats are bad.

I wouldnt worry about it man, sounds like the conditions were anything but optimal. Hot, humid, and to boot, from the sounds of it, your car may not have been running its best.
I went to the dyno to get my car tuned on a 90* day with 98% humidity and man did it suck. The dyno place had the smallest P.O.S fan Ive ever seen. It was the size of one you see school bus drivers have blowing on their face.
Just go back (or to a different one) when youre car is ready to go and also its a little cooler. Im sure youll have better results. Your numbers dont seem to bad though considering your mods and that you A4

my fastest pass down the track was withing 2 mins of a previous pass... LOL... I know I should've let it sit and cool down...but I could feel it in my bones that it was gonna go faster...
anywho...yeah... I did shut it down before the last run... for a few mins... but as I said...I had like 4 failed attemps... plus the Missfire wich kept us looking for something wrong in the engine bay...so the car was HOT

yeah... numbers seems to be on the botom end on the range is all...and the Mach1 ran near identical numbers... so it sucked even more... gotta wait till about october when it cools down again... cause today has been sunny and 95 degrees all day long... (last night was a passing rain storm or something the reason for the 80degree weather)

From what I hear dyno jets dyno kinda high. I had my car dynoed in July on a Mustang and only pulled 281/283 with a K&N, Predator programmer, elec. Water pump, 25%underpulley, shortys, duals 2.25inch no cats, SLP LM2s,A4. Compensating for weather and temp he said it should have been about 295. He said that ALL the LS1's that come in the shop stock only dyno about 260RWHP. He said all I gained out of it was 20RWHP.

I wasnt happy with it at all. I know how you feel being dissapointed. I just purchased new American Racing Headers and a magnaflow 3inch X-Pipe, it gonna take 1-4 weeks for my headers to get made and get here. Hopefully it will help out quite a bit over my current exhaust.

IT WAS A LOOSE SPARK PLUG WIRE!!!!... the 2nd one from front to back...in the driver side bank...was almost falling off the Coil... the guy was having trouble getting the RPM signal...he must've moved it somewhat to see if he got a signal and almost knocked it out of place...that explained the bad misfire it had!... and probably why I'm so dissapointed with the RUN it it...
