First thing wrong: it's an inline 6 not a v6...
P0135 o2 sensor heater circuit malfunction bank 1 sensor 1
P0141 o2 sensor heater circuit malfunction bank 1 sensor 2
P0155 o2 sensor heater circuit malfunction bank 2 sensor 1
P0161 o2 sensor heater circuit malfunction bank 2 sensor 2

Check the wiring to the o2 sensors to make sure you don't have an open or a short, and that you're getting voltage, if voltage is good, replace the sensors.

What kind of funny sound did it make?

By the air filter? You mean the intake? Is it backfiring? If your sensors are bad, it's probably running pig rich and unburned fuel is detonating. You need to be more descriptive or post a vid of the sound it's making.

Go to the Power Distribution Center (PDC) in your engine compartment and check the fuse marked (in this pic) "O2S RELAYS".

You removed the exhaust? See, these are details we need to know...were you getting these codes before you removed the exhaust? If not, go back over your work, make sure everything is plugged in, in the right spots, and check your harness for any breaks or shorts.

Job #1 is to take CCKen's advice and check the mini fuse for the oxygen sensor heater system, located in the power distribution center.

The fact that you have codes with the word "heater" on it and have multiple codes for different sensors leads me to believe that you have one common root cause.

And so you don't chase your tail, gotta eliminate that 02 heater fuse before doing anything else.

Definitely check the fuse. That's troubleshooting 101. Check the simple things first.
