Or he could just flip his second cat around.

I'll tell you the easiest method.. take the bulb out of the gauge pod. Thats what I did. No cutting of wires, and I have no cat to flip around. I still get great gas milage and the car runs awesome. 32city/40highway.

Get a throttle body next, my CEL went off and stayed off after I did that.

there are several threads of how to correct the cel. i used the anti fouler method, and it works just fine. it cost about $3.50, just buy that, it comes with two, drill a 1/2" hole in one of them, screw the second o2 sensor (one at front of second cat) into the anti fouler with the hole drilled in it, and then screw the other one onto the end, and plug it back into the cat. works great, just remember to reset your battery.

Yep. Autozone sells them in pairs for about $4.00. Easy fix for CEL.

I just installed my RRM headers but they didn't say RRM on it like others do. But they look good and they definatly feel like there is something going on HP wise.

i get between 215 and 245 a tank, depends on where i go, i never got more than 250 on a tank highway driving.

if i get the header n i fail emissions, how long does it take n how hard is it to switch them w/o a lift?
