Default O2 Simulator question?

If I remove the EGR/Air when I install my headers, will the O2 simulators cause the SES light to stay off? Or will it be on anyway and have to be tuned out.

The o2 simulators will only get rid of "no cat codes" They do nothing for EGR and AIR. The SES light will still be on. You'd have to get those codes tuned out.

Thanks, people have scrambling me up on my install lately. Saying that the O2's took care of both. I knew they were crazy.

I've got sims in the rear but still get a code for the egr and air. Car runs just fine, I will tune them out after a cam and converter.
