wtf is the air tube for?

and why is it cheaper then ebay item #380015816356, which is the same thing without the air tube (and also the one i was gonna buy)

oh just kidding, its not CARB compliant, no wonder its cheaper. That wont work in cali.

LOL...I don't know. Just search ebay and told Jonathan at RSI to get me one similar to that. He said he can get it cheaper for me.

It's OBDII complaint and on the description said it should be legal for Cali right?

"UNIVERSAL CATALYTIC CONVERTER; 3-Way: 7.8L/7000lbs. EPA, 7.4L/7000lbs. California; 3-Way+Air: 6.2L/7000lbs. EPA, 5.9L/7000lbs. California; Single Air Tube"

I paid 1200 for the cat on my last car(my bad)

Makes my $800 turbo back system seem like a steal.

For Cali it also needs to be CARB approved. Essentially the universal you noted above is the same thing except the CARB legal cats have a CARB number attached to them, so it can be shown if asked for during the visual check when getting smogged. They also cost more. The Magnaflow 42000 and 43000 series are California CARB legal cats.

I have never, with any modded car I've owned, ever had the smog tech look under my car to view the cat. It's just yet another Cali bullshit standard.
