Default RE: Cats?

I could not pass the tail pipe test with no cats so I had to put some hi flow cats on and it passed with without any problems. I do not have a smog pump on car and was not sure if I would have to hook it back up for the cats to help, but by the numbers below you can see what a change they made. I tryed changing the timing and it would change the numbers, but would not get close to passing.

Before new Cats
Hydrocarbons Vehicle Results: 1,058.00 ppm Failed
Carbon Manonoxide Vehicle Results: 1.55 % Failed

After new Cats
Hydrocarbons Vehicle Results: 35.07 ppm Passed
Carbon Monoxide Vehicle Results: 0.05 % Passed
