Default 96-97 O2 Sensor after CAT

Hey,
I am really in the market for a high flow cat. I have DC Sports SS Headers, AEM CAI, Tanabe Super Racing Medalion exhaust, AEM Fuel Rail, etc. The problem is where the hell do I put my O2 sensor that is located after the cat(on 96-97's)? I was told that If I don't hook it up, properly, the computer will not get the right reading and mess up my air/fuel ratio because it isn't like stock. Others tell me to just drill a hole and pop it in, but that dosn't sound right. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

are you going to be doing it yourself?

with most hi-flow cats, they are still OBD2 legal. any muffler shop would be able to cut a hole after the cat with a plasma cutter and put your o2 sensor back in.

as far as an o2 sensor simulator goes, check out this site. all of the parts are available at Radioshack.

This is linked on my site. Guess you missed it.



The concept the same except the wire colors differ. White on the CL is the same as black on his site. Green is the same as his grey. The white on his schematic are the same as the black

Ok,
I understand much better now. I see where the 1/4 watt 1 Mega Ohm resister and the 1 micro farad capacitors go, but what do I do with the other parts it says you need....the PC Board Term and the ICB90 PC Board...the diagram dosn't show what they are, or where to use them...thanks for all the help guys. -Ryan
