Default Diablo Sport and O2 sensors

Hey all, i have been looking into the dialbo sport tuner and just read that it can shut off the two rear O2 sensors.. will that make the truck run uber rich like when the O2's are bad or will it just run of the front two without a problem like the older model trucks?

If the programmer shuts them off then it will probably trick the computer into thinking that it is giving a good reading and that will allow the programmer to alter the A/F mix and that is where you will get the power gains. I would check with the company to see if it will mess up the trucks computer and if they will warrenty the programmers effects on the truck.
