Oxygen Sensor Simulator
Oxygen Sensor Simulator
As many of us are aware.. Some of the exhaust systems available right now (with an offroad pipe) will trigger a Check Engine light because the rear O2 sensor is not responding appropriately. I found a GM OBD-II Sensor simulator on this site:

The only issue I have with this is if its Wire compatible.. Basically the rear 02 sensor only needs to oscillate a voltage slightly but to maintain a particular voltage on average, and it won't throw a CEL.. If it maintained a steady "Optimum" value, it would throw an error because it would think there's something wrong.
and a project circuit if someone wants to run with it..

Which is supposed to be adjustable.
Hope this helps you techies out there who choose to eliminate a Cat for racing..
