Re: Removing the Cat???

If you remove the post cat sensor or the cat, it will throw a code. The pre-cat sensor monitors the mixture to determine the efficency rate. The post cat sensor makes sure that the cat is reducing the spent gases to an acceptable level. What you need is called a "Mil Eliminator" it will plug in where the O2 sensor was. This will send a constant signal to the computer telling it the cat is doing its job just fine. It's alot like the performance mod. you were talking about earlier, in that it is basically a resistor. The computer sends out a specific voltage to the o2 sensor, the level of oxygen available in the exhaust stream will cause the resistance through the sensor to change. The Mil Eliminator mimics an acceptable level of resistance, telling the computer that it's ok.
You can just use a cable tie to attach it to something under your truck, You might even tape the connection just to be sure.
