Why stop at the main cats
? Why don't you just drain your old motor oil right into the ground. Heck, why even stop there. Go the extra mile and doanything else you can to ruin the Earth.
You deserve a check engine light you. Put your cats back on and be responsible to your environment.

OK... I have had bad luck with posting on my forum... Either there isn't anybody that can help me or you ladies just HATE me...
Whatever... I'm gonna give it another shot...
I recently took off my downpipes to take off my Tranny for a clutch replace... So i decided to gut my downpipes... But why stop there... I decided to go the extra mile and remove the main cats too... So How can I get my car to run right and not have a CEL...???

While I'm a advocate of using cats, if the car is tuned properly it will not pollute. It's all the poorly tuned cars, even running cats + the old crap cars that are killing us....
Oh, DON'T get me started about SUV's!!!!

I used to have a mitsu$h1tty Eclipse GSX and the very simple cheap approach was to wrap the sensor portion of the o2 in a thin fine wire that still enabled me to put the o2 sensor back in the exhaust pipe. worked perfect, never had any issues.

Not to sound like soap box preacher. but they (piggies) never have any issues with aCEL or cars running rich and sputtering. Every time I see some one saying how easy it sounds and how they did it there self I also see them saying how they have an issue. They might just gut and replace but apparently there is a right way and a wrong way to do it.
In the end it sounds like you need the ELE's I have no cats on my car and as I said I know several people that have done the same with no issues. I actually have never herd of any one with no cats and ELE's that had an issue......But keep in mind for every goodsolution there is a idiot ready to Fu$k it up
