MagnaFlow Ceramic Catalytic Converter w/O2 Port - Stainless Steel - Direct Fit

MagnaFlow Catalytic Converters - MF49461

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:

• Improved airflow leads to increased horsepower and torque and greater fuel efficiency
  • Mandrel-bent tubes allow for unrestricted airflow by maintaining the same diameter through every curve
    • Unrestricted airflow decreases back pressure ("exhaust turbulence"), maximizing efficiency
  • Ceramic catalyst is engineered for maximum airflow
    • Honeycomb design and a detailed coating process allow the converter to break down as much exhaust as possible
    • Speedy conversion of exhaust to harmless gases increases airflow through the converter
• Ribbed body encases the ceramic catalyst
  • Reduces expansion and distortion when the converter reaches its high operating temperature
  • Forms channels that hold the ceramic in proper alignment
• Heavy-gauge stainless steel shield is seam welded to the ribbed body
  • Forms a strong bond to prevent the ceramic from shifting
  • Includes ribbing as a final layer of protection against heat damage
  • Reinforces the structural stability of the entire converter
• Custom designed for your vehicle
• Easy bolt-on installation - OEM fitting uses all factory hanger locations and flanges
• O2 sensor port included
• Made in the USA
• Limited lifetime warranty

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 one O2 port. The O2 sensors are sold separately.
