Product Details

This Magnaflow direct-fit catalytic converter is built with a strong 409 stainless steel body and features mandrel-bent tubing, which helps maintain smooth exhaust flow. It's designed to keep your check engine light off and is CARB compliant, meaning it's legal for use in California and other states with strict emissions regulations.

Magnaflow uses advanced 3D scanning during their research and development to ensure this converter fits and functions just like the original equipment. The OE-style spun body design is paired with a single laser fusion weld, significantly reducing the chance of exhaust leaks. Its compact, low-mass construction also helps with thermal efficiency. Because it's a direct-fit unit, installation is straightforward, with no cutting or welding needed, and it includes the necessary gaskets for a proper seal.

This converter is specifically designed for the 2004-2005 Pontiac Grand Am with the 3.4L engine, and also fits the 2004 Oldsmobile Alero with the 3.4L engine. It's a well-built replacement that meets or exceeds California Air Resource Board requirements.
