if you are in california, you will need the stock piece.

does anyone have this front converter?

 

[njaremka]

if you truley have an MSP, both cats are in the same pipe. you cannot replace just one.

P0421 can be triggered by a faulty primary o2 sensor. checking or replacing that sensor may be all that is needed. or, one of the o2 sensors may have a bad connector. i would start with those.

If my car has over 180,000 miles, could it still be a bad o2 sensor and not a bad cat?
