Default Slp Hi Flow Cats Legal In Ca????

Okay, So Here's The Question. Are Slp Hi Flow Cats Emission Legal In California? I'm Wondering Because A Lot Of The Hi Flow Cats I've Found Aren't Legal For Sale Or Use With The Obdi Or Obdii. I Want To Put True Duals On My Car And Before I Go Out And Spend $350 On Some Hi Flow Cats, I Figured It Would Be Good To Ask. Thanks.

Even if the cats are certified for California usage. They will still be illegal in your application.

Relocating/removing cats is a Federal offense, cept CA is about the only state that really gets pissed about it. They take it all personal an ****.

Depends on the cats, over 50k on the motor, you can remove them. But, true duals, will have to be out the back!

Not in california. Other states you can use aftermarket cats on but in California they have not been approved yet for our cars. Although they will pass a sniffer test the same the visual part will fail. Only cars able to use aftermarket cats in California are Dodge/Jeep/Chevy pu's and the dodge 3.5l car engine.
