yeah I know but if something is fishy (no engine light but a code comes up) they poke around your car
Code shouldn't come up. The O2 simulator doesn't kill the code, block it or whatever. Itreports that everything is working perfectly fine. So there is nothing to worry about.

If you want to be safe, keep your old O2 sensor in its place, run some dummy wire to it, and just hide your simulator.

jeez, sounds like the o2 simulator wins out, if I kill the code, will the DMV be able to tell?

I put a set of flowmasters on mine and I get that code all the time. So instead of going up to autozone or paying to have it checked by a dealer I just bought the code reader deal made by actron. Sure it was 125 bucks but Ive probably made that money back by either saving someone money or getting paid to fix something that the thing read.
