Default just installed turbo kit, runs crappy. HELP!!!!

I just installed a turbo kit. Im running a b16 with low comppression. I do know Im running too rich do to the fact that I have no O2 sensor at the moment. Is that the reason my car dies when I come to a stop on the road. And I also Have low idle and sluggish start ups. Are these symptoms of an absent O2 sensor? If so tell me why. Or If you think its a bigger problem, any suggestions would help. Thanks in advance.

i don't think its the o2, i know someone who runs without an o2 sensor, and his car is fine. What kinda fuel setup are u running?

Are you talking about your primary o2 sensor? I remember when I was doing my car I had to drive to my friends house to use his welder and had my primary o2 sensor out. The car drove like ****, bogged a lot, wouldn't like to drive at sustained speeds.

ok....if its your primary O2 i almost gaurantee its the problem!!! when my car throws CEL for my O2 it bogs sooooo bad i cant even accelerate, i have to turn the car off and on again to turn off the CEL......why is your O2 not hooked up??? that is what tells your ecu how your motor is running! IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!
so get it hooked up and see how it runs!

im only running the o2 sensor that goes into the downpipe, the other one is chopped off. Will this have any effect? My car seems to run fine.
