how about this part ? i saw it in Speedinc part # IZM993-1 ?

O2 Simulators
Do your high flow catalytic converters throw an SES light? Do you run an off-road y-pipe at the track? Plug in these o2 simulators in 5 minutes and keep that light off.

Yes I have them on mine for the same problem. My scanner wouldn't delete the under threshold code, but both work. The O2 sims is what I ended up getting though and they work great.
