your AutoAnything experiance?

Hello all, so I've been in the fragged Cat-converter family for quite some time now. Which means Im rocking a hollowed stock Cat for now. Being in California it makes life a little more difficult. I am planning on selling the Car soon as getting a stroller in the trunk is a pain, gas mileage is fun, and passed 100k mark with random stuff breaking is bad.
As we all know buying a factory Cat replacement is out of the question LOL. So I know the options, Rp supercat, used Cat, rx7store cat, Some manga flow 700$, and custom job.

But recently I came across Autoanything and there Direct replacement Cats for 262.00. (after special first time buyer deal and with free shipping)

http://www.autoanything.com/exhausts...0A3383105.aspx

Pretty good deal on a new replacement cat right? The only thing is all the reviews of Auto Anything come up as 1 star. I was hoping someone else on here had any experience with them or specifically buying a Cat-converter from them. Thanks for you help.

Did you see the part where they say they won't ship this to California?

I bought a cold air intake for my F150 awhile back from them. Everything went smoothly and it got to my house like a week after I ordered it. I don't have anything bad to say about them.

But like Ken said they won't ship that piece to Cali anyways.

I believe your emissions laws require an oem cat. when the car is being tested and there is a visual inspection. Is there anything in the law that requires you to be emissions complaint before a sale can be completed?

California emission testing is one of the strictest in the nation. Believe me, you have to go out of state to get parts that is illegal in California to sell, because of emission standards.
