California-compliant universal fit catalytic converters from MagnaFlow feature the same high quality flow-efficient monolithic honeycomb catalyst and American made stainless steel construction as its Direct-Fit line.
The universal catalytic converter's main benefit is that one unit may cover a wide variety of vehicle makes and models.
Specifically designed for Pre-OBII & OBDII vehicles registered in California, California-compliant universal fit catalytic converters are required within New York for 1993, 1994, 1996 and newer model year vehicles that have a California emission system.
You can identify if your vehicle has a California emission system by checking your emission tag located under the hood, on the suspension tower or on the radiator shroud.
If your emission tag says California anywhere on it, it is safe to assume your vehicle has a California emission system.
Additionally, for all OBDII vehicles, it is imperative to check the Engine Family Number (EFN), also located on the emissions tag, against the converter's application listings to confirm your specific vehicle has been certified to use the part in question.
Professional installation is recommended as installing universal catalytic converters requires welding, cutting and tube bending.
