That's like paying for an illegal smog(If you know someone let me know) and it sure will pass. Anyone know a cheap place I can buy/want to rent me a working cat?
    One of my friends just drilled out his CATs so they are free flowing and his car surprisingly passes smog. I'd replace the O2 sensor first then worry about the CAT later if it doesn't pass with the new O2.

                I checked the new intake boot before putting it in. It used to buckle on first gear with the old intake boot and its fine now. I made sure I tightened the clamps and checked for leaks. I didn't find any, so I'm assuming its good. I'll try the O2 sensor. On the other hand, does anyone have a used euro plate filler for sale?

                  early or late?

                                It's tough. I haven't been through this sort of thing in five years. It's a complicated situation, not just some young, high school-ish relationship. I guess you just have to take it at face value and push forward.

                                Glad to have r3v to wallow away in instead of going outside. Haha.
