300E a couple 1994 w124wagon E320 Wagon/,1971MGB Track/Rally, MG Midget Autocross ,2000 E320 wagon.
Clear

the codes. Gas up. Drive the car and see if they come back.
Could be that the mass air sensor needs time to readapt the ecu in range now that the exhaust is flowing properly.
Could take a few cycles.
Also inspect for unmetered air leaks
if it keeps coming back you know what you need
