depends on which CEL is thrown. I've thrown a few CEL's due to wierd weather+TP, and I've never gone into limp mode
but won't a bad o2 make the car into limp mode?

Slightly OT, but how badly does the exhaust stink without a cat? Is it something you can get used to? What's it smell like?

a CEL fix is just an extender that puts your O2 sensor a little further away from the exhaust flow. This just ensures that the sensor doesn't smell too much of the uncatalyzed exhaust, which would throw a check engine light.
thank you for all the good advice so far. And I am pretty sure I can get use to the smell, my previous car was a built evo8 with no cat. Nothing like the smell of carbonoxide in the morning

They're all pretty much the same. The only thing you have to watch for is quality welds and such. Since you're running a 60MM exhaust, you probably want to run a 63MM TP. Berk I know is a good one and a favorite around here. But really any of them will do.

I love it. When I stop at the lights with the top down, it wafts over the car and I inhale deeply. Smells like global waming.
