Default o2 simulator

quick question for the NA-T guys will the o2 simulator for a 96+ supra fit in my o2sensor spot and wire in correctly? how many of you need the o2 simulator for your cars to run with out being way way way too rich to the point where it was throwing a maf code??

all this is obviously for the obd2 NA-T guys

thanks

O2 Simulators are garbage and if you use one for your main sensor (the one in the exhaust manifold) your car will soon be garbage as well.
The ECU changes determines fuel trim based on O2 sensor input.
If it's reading stoich at all times, the computer will think your car is running perfect and won't make any changes.
The only place you can use one of these simulated sensors with no harm is after the catalytic converter where the sensor just checks how well the cat is working.

If you have 2 sensors AFTER the downpipe, you have a pretty rare SC therefore I wouldn't know of any compatibility.

EDIT: As for the simulator...what do you mean by "fit"?
Are you asking whether the clips will match up, because even if they don't, you can just cut the wires and hardwire the simulator.
