I purchased a Magnaflow High Flow Cat from PDM Racing and i have less than 5,000 miles on it. I noticed there are CALIFORNIA cats out there now and I do not want to purchase another cat.
Do you guys know which smog requires this? I have smog coming up soon and I wasn't sure if it was the TEST ONLY / STAR that checked it, or does ALL SMOG check ups look at your cat now?
