IN Bad O2 Bank 2 W/O Cat

I went catless and now my secondary O2 sensor is bad. Would this still be covered under warranty or is it voided because i went catless?

Void, unless you put your cat back on. They will claim that removing the cat directly impacted the 02 sensor and caused it to fail.

Since removing the cat is a violation of federal law and voids your exhaust warranty the answer is no it would not be covered. What's the point of the sensor anyway since you removed the cat?

You can turn off the CEL, but it will come back shortly after that. Most catless guys just cover the CEL with a piece of electrical tape.
