your misfire has gotta be a seprate issue. i put on the 1/4 watt 1 mili ohm resistor on the black wire of the second o2 sensor to keep keep from getting the catalyst efficiency code and i dont have a cat just a longtube header. i ran it open header for a while before i got my exhaust and i had no problems it was just alot slower with no muffler or anything

reset the pcm! and try taking off the o2 sensor and putting outside! if dont work its the sensor maybe its death and about missing fire, check out the spark plug, wires, and the injectors maybe a injector wire its cutter from inside!
