Not that familiar with the codes but think they have something to do with O2 sensors; I do know you need to address the issue ASAP. Removing the baffles could be causing a l lean condition which surely won't help. Also, check for vacuum leaks.

Maybe a tuner that understands the codes can provide some better advice.

Put the baffles back in. The problem is that sensors are likely getting air back in the pipes which messes with the long term closed loop correction. A tuner will help as the closed loop tuning can be turned off.

The codes are for an overly lean condition …. front and rear cylinders. Clear the codes and put the baffles back in…..recheck codes. Probably have to add a tuner if you want to continue with the baffles out.
