Help!! Catalytic Converter

Is there any california compliant catalytic converter that would fit into 04 TSX and be able to pass Smog Test? What about Magnaflow cat?

I recommend this course of action. I have a RT Cat and love it but I don't have CA smog to deal with.

Vin, what do you base that assertion on? Did you do dynos that I wasn't paying attention for, or is this "butt-dyno" action?

I'm happy with my RT but whenever it needs replacing I'm going to be looking for the best-performing solution to compliment my supercharged setup.
