Is the M2 emission certification level EPA or CARB?
Only asking b/c of this recommendation...

If an OBD II vehicle is built to meet CARB standards, then it requires a California certified converter. For example, one significant difference is that NYS will allow EPA (Federal) certified vehicles to use a non-CARB part whereas California does not make that distinction.
Which I am reading as if the car's VECI is CARB then it is
best to use a CARB cat.
I know most are installing the cat for sound but is there a concern that we could generate enough heat by tracking the car to melt the cats? Or is the M2 cat beefed up too like the coolers and oil sump?
