    My cat's out and my Check Engine Light won't go off until I find another one.

    Looking for a 2003 (or other years if it will fit) Catalytic Converter for an RS.

    you are looking to spend over $600. Get a spark-plug anti fouler, it will take care of your CEL.

    Spark-plug anti foulers, from my experience with them, are basically a threaded tube that moves the spark plug further from the combustion chamber to prevent any oil from getting on them. Not sure how that would get rid of your CEL though

    It will thread into your 02 bung, then your 02 sesor will thread into it, keeping it far enough away from the main exhaust stream to not read correctly, thinking the cats are still OK.
