No it's not Turbo'd
If the stock O2 is missing the ECU goes into "Default" Mode, where is just runs everything rich... or at least where it usually would monitor the AFR... via O2 at Cruise... so your Highway Milage will suffer, but other than that, nothing will happen... I run mine without O2, since my wideband would fry the ECU with 5V when it's expecting 1V... I could shove a bunch of resistors in there but why !? It Works... and when I swap out the ECU for the AEM I hook the Wideband up to it....
It knows how to read 5V and does so very well...
