Default 2002 xtype o2 bypass?

I know some vehicles have parts available that can bypass the o2 sensor so that you can run a test/straight pipe. Anyone know of anything like this for our vehicles? Thanks!

Thanks, I appreciate it! It sounds ridiculous to me to junk a car based off of only catalytic converters... I can not believe how much all the shops want to replace them... I am all about the environment and all, but yeah...

Default bad converter?

I don't think you converters are bad. I think it is the sensors no mater what a shop may say. They have these spacers you can lift the 02 sensors out of the converters just enough so that they still read but not let the lights on. Someone posted them on here. I will have to look. I bought them and they work great.

I did have multiple places including the dealership check... The car is real sluggish and terrible gas mileage... If I can just bypass them and be done I would be happy

I just noticed the spacers allow the test/straight pipe. How many do I need? I am assuming 2... Also, are there two different ones or are they the same? Thanks!
