MagnaFlow Conv Universal 2.25 inch CA Tier 1

You're looking at the MagnaFlow California Grade CARB Compliant Universal Catalytic Converter, part number 408065. This is the piece that helps ensure your 1996-1999 Acura Integra stays compliant with emissions standards, especially in California and other restricted states, by helping to keep that check engine light off. It's designed to meet or exceed California Air Resource Board (CARB) requirements, meaning it's undergone extra testing to be legally used where emissions are strictly regulated.

What you get here is a well-built unit featuring a stainless steel construction that's really good at resisting corrosion, so it should last you a good long while. The catalyst blend inside is formulated to be efficient, doing its job to clean up exhaust gases. MagnaFlow uses a single laser fusion weld, which is a strong way to join the pieces and greatly cuts down on the chance of leaks. Its compact and lightweight design is also a plus, making it easier to fit into tight spaces under the car, though you will need to weld it into place.

This is a universal converter, so while it's designed to fit a wide range of vehicles like your Integra, remember that cutting and welding are required for installation. It's a solid option if you need to replace your catalytic converter and want something that meets strict California emissions standards.
