The O2 sims stops the codes from the down stream sensors when hi-flow cats or off road (no cat) mid sections are installed. I have never used them. I just delete the codes from the DIC when they show up. They come back again from time to time and you delete them again.

The down stream O2 sensors are only measuring cat efficiency and the code indicates a bad cat converter. I was told that during WOT the downstream sensors are not even being read.

They're still being sold. I have to hunt down the seller and I'll PM if I can find it. Or get an older revision Predator and tune them out yourself.
