The website was easy to use, I got a smokin' deal on my part (better price than any other supplier and I shopped around!), and it was shipped so quickly and safely, and arrived way before I expected it to. So much so, it's already on my vehicle!!! I will recommend Hot Exhaust to all my friends who enjoy upgrading their vehicles.

Are catalytic converters required in NYC and the rest of New York State?Yes, catalytic converters are required in NYC and all of New York State for vehicles originally equipped with them.
