deleting cats 97 ss
deleting cats 97 ss i am getting ready to delete the cats on my 97 ss. should i purchase the o2 sims or get the o2's tuned out? what are the advantages and the disadvantages of each?
Just get a pcmforless tune or madz28 or similar. 170 bux and well worth it. They retune for 50 bux.

Also, the EPA has come down on places like caspers electronics and others and they are no longer able to sell the simulators. Plus, as mentioned before, there are extra benefits that can be picked up thru a tune.

Sell the parts and get a little money, let them make a lot more money. It is a business, and should be viewed as such.
Keeping the old parts has it benefits, since you can bring it back to stock if you need to, for a lot less money.
Tuning is always the best (max power), but more expensive.
Sims can fail, as they are parts. But they can also be replaced, because they are just parts.
Your choice.

my cats are internally broken, so i need to get them off. when the o2's are tuned out, do they just turn them off or actually tune the vehicle on the dyno to run without the rear o2 sensors?
when the rear o2's are tuned out will it show ready when i go for an inspection? i have heard people say that rear o2's are only there to check the operation of the cats and have nothing to do with fuel trims. if the cats are not working efficeintly then i am sure the computer senses it and adjusts the fuel trim. can someone please verify this?
A tune is not worthless ever. You can pick up at least 10rwhp on a bone stock car, plus other advantages like running cooler, etc.
