installed aftermarket exhaust on my 05 2.5rs - removed cat also... now I have a CEL, and i was wondering is a Missing link would fix it... or if anyone had any other ideas... I dont have a code reader available in my area.

BTW this is my friend's acct. I dont have a computer.

He knows its because of the Cat missing, he just wants to know if it can be fixed by using one of those missing links or by using a O2 sensor spacer... Anyone have any Ideas other than re-installing the Cat?
