You will be wasting your money. P0171 is not for a defective nor "lazy" ("slow") downstream sensor.

Edit.
These are codes which could be for "slow" ("lazy") O2 sensors.

HO2S slow response rate - P0133, P0153
HO2S lack of switching - P1130, P1131, P1132, P1150, P1151, P1152
HO2S lack of switching (sensor indicates lean) - P1137
HO2S lack of switching (sensor indicates rich) - P1138

and even some of these could be attributed to other issues too. But definitely, a new downstream O2 sensor isn't going to solve your P0171 code problem.
