I have to replace my cat on a 92 accord and noticed on Ebay they sell HIGH FLOW CATALYTIC CONVERTER for very low prices. They are new and look to be the same shape as OEM cats - but do they match the same emissions standards? The aircare I have gone to failed twice and I am told I will need a new cat converter = will the High Flow one do the same job as the OEM ones?

thanks

Yes of course, in addition to giving you 15 horse power this $10 Cat will also pass the emissions test.

Why spend $100+ on a normal CAT when a high performance one is only $10?

This things will give you that tractor trailor sweet n loud sound too.


BTW, the thing is basically a hollow tube, which in a sense removes your CAT, makes your car sound like a tractor, and fail all emissions tests.

Notice how it does not say it's 50 state legal, which it is probably not = probably not legal in Canada = 100% fail on your emissions test.
