Any muffler shop, it would be illegal for them to sell one that wasn't legal.

Hehehe, that's great. The ones that are legal for CA....where do people come up with this stuff. Also, something has to be wrong with the converter to be replaced if you take it to a respectable shop, but if you take it to a hole in the wall, they'll do whatever you want for a few bucks, kinda like hookers.

Unfortunately, now the replacement cats have to be CARB legal AND OBD-II compliant- and those are serious $$$$. This is all "technically" speaking, though. I'm sure if we ripped apart an OBDII cat, and the older one, they'd be exactly the same internally. Damned CARB legislation
