If you can do the work yourself--visit a magazine shop and buy a copy of a magazine entitled "Honda Tuning". There should be some ads in the magazine from companies that offer great deals on cat. converters. -- NEWSGROUP SUBSCRIBERS MOTTO We respect those subscribers that ask for advice or provide advice.

Thanks Grumpy for the comeback...I am concerned about the stiff Emission
Control Inspection in western Pa. Being that it is a LEV vehicle,the aftermarket cat might not do the job.
