Default o2 sensor affect performance?

i have a d16z6 and it runs a little sluggish. i feel like it should be a bit faster than what it is. i have an unplugged o2 sensor. can this be a reason for a poor performance? possible losing a few hp? thanks for the help.

LOL, woowwww.


Yes, you need the 02 sensor.
Without it, you will bog down and run pig rich.
