Re:3" exhaust build
On my 97 ex I installed a test pipe and took out the cat, and even though I had the o2 sensor in the test pipe I had A CEL, so yes you need both and a Cat to not get a CEL. I solved it Using an OBD1 P28 and conv harness.

The after cat O2 is in place to make sure the CAT is working. You can make your own 02 simulator with a transisor amplifier circuit (?). I'm 99% sure that's what its called. Basically the circuit would take the reading from the first 02 sensor and then split it to 2, 1 for the orignal harness, and then the 2nd is run through the amplifier which would be used to drop the voltage and then send it as if it were the 2nd 02. This simulates the catalytic burning off the excess fuel and thus showing a leaner burn. It could be like a $10 solution. I'll make one and let ya'll know if it works...
