Re: cat (spooniq)

you will gain a bit more power not that big of a difference. You will not pass smog but that is why you would keep your oem cat for that reason. You can make a mechanical O2 sensor simulator by getting 18mm sparkplug foulers for about $5. http://www.s2ki.com/forums/ind...29959 hopefuly that will help.
