I've had a highflow cat for about 9 months now. It was only about 0ne month ago where the SES light came on. I bought a new 02 sensor and had the code deleted but the damn light came back on in about a month so I don't know what to do....help please.

why? You should have just bought an O2 sim...buying a new sensor wasn't going to fix the problem<hr></blockquote>
how does an 02 sim fix the problem?? will it not jack up my gas milage and such??

I'm not sure about the gas mileage issue but FYI the SES light was NOT TRIGGERED by a faulty O2 sensor. It was triggered because it's reading a different reading then from what the stock cat would typically reproduce.

you need an o2 sim that will trick the computer into getting the right readings
