To give you all a heads up the reason people blow their engines, aka burn their valves up, when removing a cat is because their engine winds up running lean, or their fuel to air mixture is wrong putting in too much air. When I removed the cat I corrected this problem and the exhaust I have on the jeep creates enough back pressure to work with. So in theory, even with the high flow cat your engine may still be running lean and I would have that checked by a mechanic.

Better build an o2 simulator after removing that cat. You WILL kill your motor by changing it's downstream readings effectively leaning your motor and hurting your performance.

the 96's computer will automatically try and correct the problem? That's now, I know BMW does that but I wouldn't think my older vehicle would.

It will still throw a downstream code. now u mention it I don't remember if the jeeps downstream affected the afr's.
