Problem started after we had exhaust pipe under passenger side replaced (pipe going straight to converter) so I am thinking it might be converter but not sure the car is bogging out almost like it's not getting air to the engine or something, rpm gauge goes crazy idle and if driving you must hammer gas petal to get it to move, or else it will studder and stall out, starts right back up but problem does continue please help I need to find the problem. When I went to the shop they changed the sensors but didn't do anything...

It's obvious that you need a different shop. This one has no idea what they are doing. The computer will not tell you what is wrong with the car. It just tells you specific facts about a specific circuit and the tech has to determine the cause. These codes need to be troubleshooted and are likely related to your problem.
