Unobtanium, which is why those of us that thought ahead saved our and would never sell
You may be able to use this one. It looks kinda right, but not sure as their other options are obviously way off:

AP / EASTERN 754686 C.A.R.B. Compliant Info
California Emissions; 6MTXV02.0GR4

** edit: Looks like the engine family for the cat below is for the regular lancer. I don't even know if you can get one from Mitsu.

I'm not the original owner unfortunately and Mitsubishi doesn't produce the cat anymore, it's considered "obsolete" the officer popped my hood and saw a K&N filter (intake system is stock aside from that) and then saw some shiny pipe and said "you don't have a sticker" and slapped me with Modified Emissions.
I had 10 CHP cars behind me when gas hit 7$ a gallon here while the homeless down the street can freely shoot up heroin with needles apparently we provide them.

Cleaning up the homeless COSTS money. Collecting traffic violation fees MAKES money, which is why you can always pay the bail and be on your merry way.
...up to two times, that is. On the third, you have to have it fixed and show proof.

I am selling both an OEM Evo 8 Cat, and a Carb Compliant aftermarket Evo 8/9 cat. I'm guessing you cant use the OEM Evo 8 cat, but you should be able to use the aftermarket Evo 8/9.

Pictures of both can be found here:
Amazon Amazon

Cat EO #: D-193-113

https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/sites/default.../d-193-113.pdf

Search function "Lancer" and look at the 2 liter engine size. All years evo 8/9 are on it. I used it as recent as January of this year to pass. To use it on your Evo 9, you'll have to remove the Allen head plug. I didnt have to do that since I have an Evo 8.

Asking $800 shipped for the OEM Evo 8 cat, $400 shipped for the Aftermarket 8/9 cat

Just went through this circus act. The ref may still fail you even if you have the OEM IX cat. Not all the refs have the correct drawings from Mitsubishi and litigation will be required to fix it because these guys think they are god and don't listen to anybody. I was able to eventually pass using aftermarket cat: Walker part number - 82633. See my post #833 for the full story.

Best of luck OP.

Summit says it "does not fit", but you had one that worked?

Oh it fits perfectly, but you have to get 2.5" two bolt exhaust flanges welded on both sides, with an O2 bunge before the exit side flange. This cat is made for the Lancer Evolution engine family as well. (Matches the number on the oem catalyst sticker under our hood)

Sweet. I'll get one as a back up. I guess "fits" and "works" are two different things.

Well, an aftermarket air filter without a C.A.R.B. number is illegal, so the officer was right. Ridiculous, yeah. But legit. Funny thing is: I have a C.A.R.B. AEM intake, but felt the car did better with the OEM intake and just the aftermarket air filter. So, my car is MORE stock but now illegal. C.A.R.B. is a joke.

C.A.R.B and green freaks are out of control.
I ordered a full Injen CARB legal intake just so they can see that sticker and lose their boner

HI all,

Do you still need a Cat? I've got a SARD one I pulled off my Evo.

No emissions in Canada
