About time I got the CEL

So i was making my 3-hour drive back home for the weekend, when a CEL pops up. Being DSM'ers we tend to freak out when this happens because well, usually it's something bad. I don't notice any driving differences, and I don't have my laptop, so I continue on. I find a autozone, and what do ya know, it's the "catalyst efficiency below operating conditions" CEL, means nothing. The weird thing about it of course is that I haven't had a cat on the car for almost 2 years now. I'm kind of curious what would set it off now? Then again, it doesn't matter because using DSMLink I cleared the code and set it so it will never go off again ;) I heart DSMLINK :icon16:
Anyway, I've been thinking about this and I just can't figure out why it would go off now :screwy:
O yeah and update on my car, I get the j-pipe from slowboy tuesday, will have it tapped wednesday, back on the car ASAP, and another race with that modded LSjuan!

after taking off all emissions on my car the only cel I got was because my rear o2 sensor broke

Dsmlink is the shiznit for eliminating pesky emission CEL's.
