First, P0031 means that there is an issue with the A/F sensor that is on your left side manifold. As Q45tech noted, either your wiring is damaged, or the sensor has failed. Its possible the octane booster damaged it, or it was inadvertently damaged during an install or it just failed, which is rare, but does happen.

Second, you are running test pipes, which means no catalytic converter. You would've gotten a CEL eventually because the rear 02 sensors would've tripped codes and warning lights about your exhaust. You need non-foulers in the test pipe to eliminate that. This will not fix your P0031 code.

Third, you're going to have to take it to a dealer if you want that front 02 sensor fixed under warranty. MSRP on those sensors is about $140 each. Which means take off your test pipes and pop charger, so you don't get any flack about the mods possibly being the cause.

Fourth, stop making titles like chicken little and the sky is falling. Its all fixable.
but the sky is falling don't you know!!! His sensors have malfunctioned!!!

you need to relax. if you just take guesses and change parts without looking at the problem, you will probably spend more than if you went to the dealer to begin with. its no guarantee that changing a sensor will fix your problem

if your o2 sensors are bad those things cost around 150 a piece...try the non foulers, and put in 4 bottles of techron with a full tank of a gas at the same time...
