Exclamation REMOVING CAT. Need to tune out

I'm getting ready to straight pipe my cat, but I want to know if anyone knows a decent tuner who can tune out the code for the 02 sensor once I chop it out. thanks

You can buy the o2 simulators for like 50 bucks I think. Extreme horse power is North Richland Hills will delete codes and disable anything that trips the service engine soon light. He'll do it for around 100 bucks and he turned off my 02 sensors , egr, air pump, and skip shift on my 00 SS.

^Please dont speak of Extreme Failure, I wouldnt take my lawnmower there. But seriuosly why do you want to straight pipe your cat, you should just get a shock collar for him if he needs some discipline.

I thought it was illegal to sell those O2 simulators as per the EPA.
