i really want to buy an ebay header, but i dont want it to make my check engine light come on. is there a way around this besides removing the negative batery every few days?

if you have the non cali spec celica the cat is on the actually header itself, when you remove your stock header to put on your ebay header, you end up catless. and why would your engine light come on, you have 1 o2 sensor and that goes onto the ebay header bolt on.

cali spec celicas as far as i know have the 2nd cat near the resonator but that should not be your case.
