As of January 1st 2009 all OBDI catalytic converters will be illegal for sale in the state of California. Period, no if ands or buts, no loop holes.

Bottom line, since magnaflow/carsound is located in California they will not be able to sell the cats to anyone in California. None of their dealers will be able to sell to you if you are in California. We (Fast Intentions) will not be able to sell to you if you are in the state of California. I know it is short notice but if you are in California, you have one day to buy these cats. After that good luck.

The good news is the other 49 states in this country do not fall under this law. This is coming down from B.A.R.(Business of Automotive Repair) and CARB.(California Air Resource Board)

I just thought I should put this little bit of information out there for all of you. As we are not pleased about this either, we don't have any choice but to comply with it. If anyone has any questions please do not hesitate to ask...

Thank you, Tony

ouch.... sorry to hear that!

 

Yeah I was disappointed to when I first heard it but there is nothing that we can do.

 

finally NY > CAL for some reason =)

 

ill buy and ship you all the HFCs you want for cost + 100 fee

 

Sounds like a good plan!!!

 

lol....

 

I hate this state with a passion, fricken hippies all over the place....

 

Just get them shipped to an out of state relative, and then get them shipped to you from them.

 

 

Keep in mind, that out of state relative would have to pay for them and all billing and shipping info would have to have absolutly no ties to the California customer. Then it shouldn't be a problem. It sounds like it could work but it could be a real hassle...

Yeah, I am sure the members of this forum would be willing to help out like Max said. Just ship it to one of us for a buck more.

 

I dont understand, Cali has the highest restrictions on vehicles but the most modified cars lol!!!

 

LOL. So true. Move all those manufacturers to Texas. We need more stuff here. We have lots of backroads and little cities to get away with more.
