Default check engine light ?

today i changed my o/r H-pipe for the stock H-pipe because i have to take it to do emissions so once i had the stock one back on i turned my car on and my check engine light went on, i was wondering if its probly because my cats might b clauged up or something is there any way to make them get cleen also i left my BBK shorty headers some people say that it will not pass the smog test i was wondering if you guys know some tricks that will make me pass the test ? thanks i would appreciate any input also i live in California so emissions a pretty hard...lol

They have some stuff at the walmart by my house for around 10 bux and you just poor it in your gastank and it said real big on the box GUARTEED TOPASS EMISSIONS OR MONEY BACK. Might wanna try to find something like that. And as far as your checkengine light goes, I'msure it does have something to dowithyour cats.I don'tknow if it would come on just because thereclogged but theres a good chance one just isn't hooked upcorrectly or something like that.
