Default Invidia axle back + midpipe set up, does this effect O2 sensors?

Fast forward to 1:58 to hear it
Amazon Amazon
Amazon Amazon

$1200 for this exhaust + install cost.. just a question though, I know the axleback is after the O2 sensors so that's not the issue but the mid pipe says it deletes the cats.. how does this effect the car? Can a check engine light come of this?

Sounds amazing IMO with midpipe

You shouldn't have any O2 issues unless downpipe but that is resolved based on what you get.

I just changed the midpipe and the axle back (the same parts from Invidia that was from the video) to my IS250. Driving for 130 miles and I have the check engine light turns on. The code diagnostic is P013C which related to the slow response of the O2 sensor. Not sure what to do now

Wait and see if the light goes off, or clear it if you want and see if it returns. Mine came on and went off about 3 times with a similar code, but has not come back for about 3 weeks now.

It already went off after staying on for 3 hours, but I still diagnose a code P013C by the OBDii. I really want to see if the Invidia midpipe and axle back cause the problem or the O2 sensor itself is bad and cause the problem or the installation causes the leaking problem.
Look like we share the same problem. It might be from the Invidia parts.

Apparently it's not uncommon, at least for the Tsudo, the usual fix being OEM gaskets. I bought them only to find the light hasn't come back on. If it does I'll install them.

Most likely I’ll pin it on the gaskets, however I believe the RR racing tune can code it out.

Oh you have Tsudo, not Invidia but you also get the code P013C too. Do you have the part number for the OEM gasket?

Yes, but the Tsudo and Invidia are very similar. Don't have the part number off-hand, just asked the parts guy to look it up and order. I think I actually got a couple different codes, from both sides.

@RRRacing ing is the main tuner for our engines. It adds power, increases torque and power all the way to the top end, and it also removes the CEL for exhaust related OBDII codes. Rafi can comment more on here. It's an amazing product.

i have the same problem with my lexus is 300 awd 2018. i install invidia mid pipe and i have o2 code and i have no leaks. i tested the o2 with a computer and it's ok. I wrote to invidia he said try to put an extension o2 code eliminator that sells on ebay. I may try them the codes always come back. Have you find a solution.
