Hi folks,

I am sharing information about Catalytic Converter for California Emission.

This is for only 4 Cyl Accords with F23a4 engine that has ULEV "Ultra Low Emission Vehicle" (tested on 2000 Accord.)

OEM Converter: Part#: 18160-PAA-L20 (Direct fit bolt-on)
MSRP $700 ~ $1100


Approved Aftermarket Option:

Magnaflow Converter: Part#: 46054 (Weld-on)
MSRP $214

Magnaflow Converter:part#: 46615 (Direct fit bolt-on)
MSRP $342

You can actually get the weld-on version and have the muffler shop cut off the old flanges and convert it into bolt-on for as little as $30.

Hope this information helps.
If anyone know of other brands of Converter that would work for CA Emission, please feel free to list them here.

-Ken
