O2 Simulator...

Will an O2 simulator that alters the signal for check engine light interfere with anything the flash does to the ECU? I have a test pipe that's giving me the cel and want to make it go away. Any advice?

It works by moving the rear o2 sensor out of the stream just enough to give a different signal than what the front 02 sensor is reading. This tricks the ECU by thinking the Cat is working by a change in the reading of the exhaust gases. The rear o2 sensor is just there to make sure the Cat is working basically.
