Code 1153 With Long Tubes

Im not sure if this is the right place for this but Ill start here anyways.
I installed LT headers last year W/O cats. I put the factory O2 sensors back in and after about 50 miles code 1153 poped up (insufficient switching). Cleared it with my predator.
This year I replaced the sensors with new Bosch ones same thing happens after about 50 miles, code 1153 again.
Ive heard that this is common when LT headers are installed W/O cats.
Is there anything that can be done short of deleting the sensors?
Anyone else take care of this problem?
What would be the fallout if I delete the sensors in the PCM?

Thanks in advance

which sensors are you replacing?
that code is for bank 2 sensor 1, which is the pass side upstream(precat) sensor, has nothing to do with the cats(or lack therof)

Thats correct.
Im just trying to figure out why it keeps shooting out a code.
Both sensors are new, (driverside & passengerside).
Thanks
