Default What the hell could be wrong? After installed APR downpipes,cats, and UUC exhaust I've been getting

My check engine light coming up. First couple of times it was for the o2censor. Do I just need to buy new sensors? How can I fix this problem? This time when the sign came on the code read improper mixture of air and fuel. I just want the damn sign to go off and replace/fix whatever I need. Could anyone help me out with this? Appericate any help.
Thanks,
If the improper mixture of air and fuel is coming on due the MAF sensor would it triger the check enigne light if I upgrade and put a RS4 MAF?

Default what turbos do you have? stock? ko3 or ko4? also just replace your MAF with a stock one

and you check engine light is most likely from the downpipes. What chip are you running? Any chip? If you are running apr chip, upgrade to apr stage2+ chip and your check engine light will go away. good day

Default I've got the K03 and it is not chipped yet I've bought the GIAC chip just not in. Would it still sho

would it still show the sign if I upgraded to the RS4 MAF rather then puting the stock one. I'll upgrade to the KO4 turbo in the future.
Thanks for the info

Default Don't use an RS4 MAF. Use a stock S4 MAF. As for the light, sure the O2s are the proper order?

It is possible to be accidently put in wrong. Could be one got damaged during the install. I know of a couple people that have had this happen.

How do I know or check if I've put the o2s on wrong or in incorrect order?
