I have the same code and a burn smell comeing off the car. I got estamated 700 bucks to fix it.
This one is fairly cheap: http://www.carparts.com/details/Chev...FYgWMgods3wAbA
Edit: Found a coupon for it too, its CPWcart
Run a staight pipe with some type of O2 simulator or anti fouler trick- the cost is anywhere from $5.to 50. Try it , its worth a shot.
Isn't that illegal?Quote:

No cat is only illegal if u get caught. Most smog checks just plug into the OBD II port -no CEL means u pass. I do believe 4you cylinder exhausts sound like crap with no cats so I recommend keeping either the pre cat or secondary. I dont think both r necessary. Our modern cars burn cleaner with no cats than the old school muscle cars with them. As long as ur state doesnt have a visual smog inspection u will be fine, and get a lil more hp n mpg
