No Cat and no SES

Ok so tell me what is going on here. I have heard all this talk about obdII cars after 97 will throw a ses light or a check engine light if you remove the cat. Ok my car is not doing any of the above with the megan header. I have both O2 sensors correctly installed and it runs perfect. Have driven about 40 miles like this and still no light. Is this to good to be true?

Too good to be true...

Oh yes, it WILL come on! I thought the same thing a few times when I made mods and it stayed off...nope came back on.

Well I guess whenever it comes on I can reset the ecu. Can't wait for the dragon exhaust shot out I have yet to hear a Mini this loud.
