Magnaflow 16-17 Chevrolet Malibu 1.5L Direct Fit Converter

The use of 308 stainless steel for the MIG welds on this Magnaflow Direct-Fit Catalytic Converter is a notable detail, contributing to its overall durability. This converter is specifically built to keep your check engine light off, making it a reliable replacement for your 2016 or 2017 Chevrolet Malibu with the 1.5L engine. MagnaFlow's research and development team uses advanced 3D scanning to ensure this part replicates the original equipment's fit and function precisely.

You'll find that the free-flowing, mandrel-bent tubing helps maintain smooth exhaust flow, which is important for keeping your fuel economy operating at its best. The construction uses high-strength 16-gauge 409 stainless steel tubing, offering solid resistance to corrosion and a long service life. By replicating the original equipment's design, the single laser fusion weld is less likely to develop leaks, and its compact, low-mass design also helps with thermal efficiency.

This converter is designed to meet or exceed California Air Resource Board (CARB) requirements and has undergone extra testing for legal use in California and other CARB-restricted states. Installation is made simpler because Magnaflow includes the essential hardware you'll need, such as a flange gasket, split lock washers, and bolts, meaning no cutting or welding is required for installation.
