I want to stay involved in the forum, after all the input I got about my A/C problem. And this posting caught my eye. Why do you want to cut up or put in a 'tiny' cat. converter? As little as I know of the emission's system, I know that if you do anything to it, you get the engine light on the dash lit up, and it throws all the computer settings off....doesn't it? I was shocked to find out that my 04 Ford Ranger had 5 cat. converters in it! And I thought, well if I remove 4 of the 5 it would give me more power. And I was told by dozen in a Ranger forum that if you remove even 1, it will throw off the computer, and the spark plugs will get all carbon build up on them fast, and it wont help at all with the power. So.....I assume that as long as the cat. converter is working, leave it alone, or replace it ALONG with a high flow exhaust system....right? Did I miss the point of this posting?

It refers to people who either have aftermarket headers or gutted cat like me. It's to try and find a cure to the cel

DGoody can u expand on that last post. Which one did u buy, straight or angled? For 2 days u had no CEL and then it came back? I read on a lotus and dodge challenger forums that they worked, but the dodge guy said it took 400 miles or so to be effective, I was really hoping this would have worked for u

I bought the straight. As soon I installed it, the light went off stayed off for two days and came right back on. Obd scanner reads it thru the po420, po132' and p1133 codes. Had it put on scanner before and after I installed this part reading the same codes
