The oxygen sensor is used in cruise conditions to keep the fuel mixtures as lean as possible for economy and emissions reasons. It's known as "closed loop mode" when the O2 sensor is being used. An engine will certainly run without the O2 sensor connected; the ECU will simply switch to "open loop mode" which means it relies on its internal fuel maps to determine fuel mixtures. These are generally set pretty rich, so your fuel economy suffers as a result. So, like I was saying before: rich fuel mixture + compressed air + heat = burning. Bye bye turbo!
