nothing installed AFTER the cats will throw a CEL. the emissions engine light is based on readings from the O2 sensors. there are two located before the cats in the headers and 2 located on the cat pipes themselves.
even with my high flow cats and headers i didn't thow a CEL until i developed an exhaust leak at the cat pipe. from what i understand the computer expects a certain difference in readings between the pre and post cat sensors. with the test pipes the readings are identical, so it gets confused.
