exhaust leak = less power??

You don't lose any open loop power since the ECU ignores the o2 sensors then anyway. You'll just lose power during light acceleration and your MPG while cruising will suffer dramatically.

O2 sensors control A/F ratios and make the car go. The ECU will not bi-pass them.

thats a load of crap.. ill explain it so everybody can understand... when u first turn ur car on in the morining for example the ecu will ignores values from the o2 sensors just untill the car gets warmed up..... same thing if u floor it the values are neglected...
