if it's a skip right off the bat i would check compression. possible bad intake gasket. i had one that would run fine when 02 was unplugged. found the sensor was forcing rich.

unplug o2 sensors did not make any difference; exhaust pressure isn't that good.

i've seen banks killed by the pcm. check that banks 02 readings. if they're flat lined or maxed the pcm will try to adjust that bank to make it right. watch the readings while un plugging 02. pcm may not be getting a signal and killing that bank. you may have a bad pcm or broken wire. unplug the map. this should force it into limp. if it doesn't then the pcm is probably bad. if it does you may have a broken wire, or a bad pcm.

Glad you got it fixed. I just need a bit of clarification here. When you posted back pressure wasn't that good what exactly did you mean. If the pressure was tested correctly the plugged cat would have stood out. Again, i'm always glad to hear about a fix.
