some states like california it is illegal to install a aftermarket cat. on a obd2 car...whats worse on the 6th gen ULEV they are 2k for the cat. using a afermarket cat. will get you a CEL pretty fast. if your in cali what you do is disconnect the battery and reset the light drive it far enough to clear 2 of the 4 redieness test leaving the evap and cat tests incomplete as in cali you can have 2 unset and still pass on 2k and older vehicles . or you can try the fouler plug adapter technique on the rear O2 sensor to trick the computer to think the cat is okay.
