No, that is the replacement O2 sensor. If you got rid of you cats, you want to pass emissions, and/or want to get rid of the SES light, you either need to have the O2s tuned out or install O2 simulators. I have O2 sims from this link (http://www.o2simulator.com/index.php...products_id=10) I'm not trying to advertise, but none of the sponsors sell sims, they are NOT street legal. I highly recommend getting them tuned out though.

I have mail order tuning on sale for $99.95 + S/H right now. Details are here: https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...-may-27th.html

On top of turning off lights, the calibration will make real HP that you will feel in your car... PM me if you have any questions.

If you can't get to a dyno, go with Frost, mail order is the next best thing, and from what I heard, isn't far off from a dyno with Frost! Plus it is a sweet deal...
