Hello, I have 1997 SAAB 900S, 2.3L 4 cyl. I must change the catalytic converter and the 2 sensors. I live in CA and there are special requirements...so I am in trouble and I need your help. The cat must be with OBDII emission performance. The original costs $2000 and I am looking for cheaper solution. I take any advice and info. Thank you.

Rather than blindly replacing everything, find out why the catalytic converter failed in the first place(if ,in fact, it did)..

Same with the oxygen sensors - how does this shop know they are "bad" ??
How many miles on your car ?
Have the MAF, IAC, vacuum lines,etc, been serviced ?
I would get a second opinion..
