ok i bought a stupid thing off ebay to eliminate my cat and i got it taken off because it was too loud and put the stock cat on and my check engine lights still wont go off i got it reset but it came back on, also the check engine light will go off and then come back on 15 minutes later i can feel a difference in performance too, it is like theres no vtec like the good old days haha, do you think i could have bad 02 sensors?

yup prolly bad sensors. Take the car to an auto parts place and have them read the code for free. Then you'll know for sure what the problem is.

Well sorta but not personally. I happen to know that they are easily messed up especially if you have an a/f gauge hooked up to it.
