Well, they didn't, at least not on the 6 speeds. My '02 just delievered has one. Supposedly all 6 speeds for '02 have them, autos don't.

I don't know why the manuals have them and the autos don't. The cat gets rid of NOX emissions. The 99.5 and later engines use a larger turbo that apparently blows enough air to not need the cat (on some vehicles).
