To see if this custom-fit item will work for you please tell us what vehicle you'll use it with.
This catalytic converter kit is engineered to speed up exhaust breakdown and uses mandrel-bent tubes to boost airflow through your vehicle's exhaust system. As a result, horsepower and torque are increased. Not CARB compliant.
Features:
Note: This product cannot be shipped to or used in California, Colorado, Maine, or New York.
This catalytic converter kit is designed specifically for your vehicle, so the included clamps and hooks connect to the factory flanges and hanger locations, making installation quick and easy. It includes mandrel-bent tubes that reduce exhaust turbulence to improve airflow.
A. MagnaFlow engineers its converters with maximum airflow in mind. The large surface area of the honeycomb ceramic catalyst is combined with a detailed coating process to allow exhaust to flow freely through the converter. Innovative technology allows each catalyst to both oxidize and reduce harmful emissions.
B. A ribbed body encases the ceramic to reduce expansion and distortion when the converter reaches its high operating temperature. The ribs form channels that hold the ceramic catalysts in proper alignment and protect the cushioning mat from direct exposure to exhaust gases.
C. MagnaFlow converters have a smooth-flowing, 1/2" lap joint where the neck and body connect. This joint prevents the neck from extending into the body, where it could impede exhaust flow.
D. MagnaFlow maintains separate dies for several converter body sizes and corresponding neck sizes. This process eliminates the need to adapt neck sizes to make them fit on a single converter body size, which would increase back pressure ("exhaust turbulence") and decrease airflow, effectively reducing horsepower.
E. The ceramic catalysts are seam welded to a heavy-gauge stainless steel converter body. Furthermore, a stainless steel heat shield is seam welded to the inner converter body. This style of welding forms a strong bond between the converter's components and prevents the ceramic from shifting.
F. Ribbing on the shield offers a final layer of protection against heat damage and reinforces the structural stability of the entire converter.
This converter includes (2) O2 ports. The O2 sensors are sold separately.

Speaker 1: Today we'll be having a look at the magnaflow line, a direct fit, ceramic catalytic converter.Now, the reason you're shopping around for a replacement catalytic converter for your vehicle is that you either have a couple different things going on. The converter itself could be clogged, you could be having a check engine light because it's not as efficient as it used to be anymore and you need to replace it so you can pass emissions, or like in our case the converter assembly, which has the flex pipe built it into it, has developed a leak and we have excessive exhaust noise, which is why we're replaced our converter assembly today.And now that you've heard it before with the original catalytic converter in place with the broken flex pipe, and the new replacement catalytic converter in, you'll notice how much quieter it is.Here's what our converter looks like installed. As you'll notice, it's a direct fit, one piece, replacement for our catalytic converter assembly on our vehicle. It goes all the way from our factory exhaust manifold and primary catalytic converter, includes our flex pipe, comes back, has our secondary catalytic converter, and then the phalange where it goes to our exhaust resonator on our factory exhaust system.Now, not only is this design to be a direct replacement for a damaged or worn out factory exhaust component, but the high flow ceramic catalytic converter can even add a little bit of performance to your vehicle.Now, when we compare this to the factory converter, right here underneath our sub frame, you can see how large of a diameter of the pipe that we have, and this is because it's mandrel bent.Here on the factory piece, where it's bent to go underneath the sub frame, you can see how it's crushed down, and this is gonna reduce air flow, and it can reduce performance.Another great thing about this converter assembly is the converter itself is EPA approved and compliant in 49 states and Canada, so you don't have to worry about failing emissions or your safety inspections for having a missing converter or one that won't pass a smog test. You're good to go in every state in the United States except for California.Now, while our converter itself is ceramic material on the inside, all of our piping is stainless steel. And what this is gonna allow us to have is exhaust piping that's gonna last a very long time.
It won't rust out anywhere near as fast as how the factory one did.And that completes our look at the magnaflow line, a direct fit, ceramic catalytic converter.
