CAT DELETE

Does a 2nd cat delete get rid of my o2 sensors. my bank 2 sensor 2 is out and I wanted to do a cat delete in the future so didn't want to replace the o2 sensor for no reason if it was just gonna get deleted later. Is a 2nd cat delete better than the 1st cats in any situation?

I will say this, the secondary cat delete does not get rid of the secondarie sensors as they are before the secondary Cats. The primary header delete will net you 20 hp then secondary cats about 5-10hp.

Point of clarification here please, primary delete will net about 20 hp and then if you do the secondary delete in addition to the primary delete you will net another 5 to 10 horsepower, correct?

Is that 5 to 10 hp still obtainable if you do the secondary delete and leave the primary cats in place?

Sensor 2 is just checking the condition of the primary cat, nothing to do with secondaries.

Those are separate gains. Either or.

Yes on the second question too.
