Default Check engine light!

I gutted my cat today, everything went fine no problems. After a couple hours of driving I got a check engine code (67).

Hybrid honda says that this code means

"malfunctioning or defective oxygen sensor heater"

What is wrong and how do I fix it?

Your secondary O2 sensor is telling the ECU that the cat isn't doing its job, (because none of the material is there anymore) thus throwing a code. There are a few solutions that people have come up with, such as wrapping the 02 sensor in foil before installing it in the cat or zip-tying the sensor next to the cat. You might want to check out the groupbuy center where there's a special on 02 simulators for testpipe (or gutted cat) users. Either way, the overall consensus is that a CEL caused by the secondary 02 sensor will not cause a loss in performance, so if you can deal with the CEL glaring at you then it shouldn't be a problem.
