yeah it is because you don't have rear O2 sensors if you have no CATs, most people, like myself, get the code deleted by a tuner and only keep the fronts connected.

Dont buy that O2 simulators, i bought that ones and didnt work at all, the light came ON. I bought that ones because of the price, just a few bucks. In the dyno the guy told me that does ones didnt function. The ones that function usually cost aprox 100-200$.
But hte dyno guy told me that people are using some homemade invest to take the SES OFF and it has seen like it works fine.
But i want to go with cats, just to be safe.
