Need help CEL P0133

Hi guys,
I’m looking for some help/advise with my 2019 2.0. I did a CTR swap with CTR downpipe and hondata tune which came with the flash pro. I have a Check Engine Light with code P0133 which is for the o2 sensor slow to response bank 1 sensor 1. I have checked over all the intake and exhaust for any kind of leaks. Reset the light and it keeps coming back after 13-14 days of driving. Finally I replaced the o2 sensor with oem and it seems to be still coming back.
has anyone experienced this? Any info will help.
Thanks.

Is there an option to disable o2 sensor codes in flashpro? You can disable certain codes/faults in Ktuner but I haven't used the hondata system.
I tried looking into flash pro, only option I saw was to bypass the primary and seconday sensor. I wonder if a custom tune can help with the o2 sensor issue.
@Vinnyseera have you tried reaching out to Hondata for assistance/support?
Ya I did. They told me to follow Honda service manual for diagnosis. Very disappointed with their response. It’s obviously the tune as a sensor can’t work for 14 days and then act up. Kinda tempted to change my car but I really like the car.
Have you flashed back to stock to see if the code clears?
I didn’t do that as I’m running a type r turbo so it might cause the engine to run lean/rich. I am going to get a pro tune and hopefully that will resolve the situation.
You're right, didn't even think about that. Custom tune is probably a good idea.

Well damn. As you stated above a pro tune will probably be your best bet in resolving this issue. With the mods you've done (CTR Turbo/Downpipe) no telling what is not speaking/acting right. Good luck on getting it sorted and let us know how it was resolved.
Thanks, for sure I will let you know how it goes. Also this way I’ll end up getting some dyno numbers running CTR turbo and downpipe with hondata off the shelf tune vs pro tune.
You need to disable some parameters in the Hondata app. Look into the sensors or closed loop tabs. Disable secondary o2 sensor and some other PXXXX error code setting, uncheck both of those.

Also does Hondata have a off the shelf tune for CTR turbo swaps on Accords? Because having to relocate the primary o2 sensor from the turbo (stock location) to the downpipe should not be overlooked. You cant just casually drop the CTR turbo in there and run any tune.
KTuner and custom tune.
