My 99 Boxster came with the Fabspeed Supercup exhaust and apparently does not have cats. It is throwing emission CEL's (P1132, P1117, P0140) I did research and know that these are related to o2 sensor. Since my car doesn't have cats am I doomed to having to clear the CEL's every time? My understanding is that the 2.5l H6 is cable driven so I can't flash the ECU? Just trying to understand my car- runs great just hate it when the CEL pops up on a spirited drive makes me nervous.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Your p1117 code is for the Pre Cat sensor on bank 1. It is at the rich limit threshold. Not having Cats is not going to have an effect on that sensor. Not having Cats is not causing that code. The other two codes are for your Post cat sensors.
