is it a high flow cat or just a resinator, I'v seen tuns of supoosed high flow cats on ebay that were nothing more than a resonator. that is an american motor it should pass smog. try changing your o2 sensor, spark plugs, run some injector cleaner though it, put new air filter (or clean yours).

ok high HC is ignition problem (cap rotor wires plugs or a distro problem) high co is a FUEL problem (O2s sticky injector sounds to me like u need a REAL cat from the auto parts store ditch that high flow crap cuz i've seen LOTS of them fail and try that and put on a stock air box that should also help 2

Just my 2cents... what do i know i'm just a smog tech..
