I just installed Greddy EVO Exhaust on my 'lude but...

Hey guys,
My friends and I just installed the Greddy Evo Exhaust System on my 98 Prelude which took us like 5 hours since the nuts and bolts on the factory was worned out and rusted

Anyhow, there's two problems:
One: The old catalytic converter looks horrible (Rusted and old) and I want to get a new one, but I cannot find ANY catalytic converter for a lude '98. The only one I found for was for Prelude 92-96. Do you guys think the 4th generation catalytic will fit the 5th generation? If you know any link or place to buy a catalytic for 98 prelude. PLEASE HELP ME!
Two: When finished installing the system (with the old catalytic converter) I turned my engine on and the yellow Engine light comes on. Why did it come on? My friend reconnect both of the plugs on the catalytic converter (are they the O2 sensor and stuff?) Well, if any of you guys experience this problem, give me some suggestions?

btw beside all these probs, the exhaust sounds great with a deep bass sound

Well, the reason why it took 5 hours wasn't the installation part. Most of the time was spent on the damn nuts that won't unscrew So I had no choice but to try the other screw that connect the cat to the header and take that out (which luckily wasn't rusted and worked). So then I had to unplug the O2 sensor, and replug them back, and I guess the engine didn't like it.
No I didn't try to reset the ECU (knew nothing about it) So I just have to unplug the battery and that's it? I'll try it this afternoon. Thans


Anyone know where I can get a good legal cat for prelude 98?

carsound or random tech make some good high flow cats for the lude. both street legal as well. if resetting the ECU doesn't work, try cleaning out your O2 sensors, or checkin if they're put in right, if a wire's loose, something like that. but to be sure, get the code read and post it and we'll be able to help you out more.
