Product Details

MagnaFlow is known for making exhaust components that flow well and last a long time. This direct-fit catalytic converter is built specifically for your 2003 Saab 9-3 with the 2.0L engine, and it's designed to keep your check engine light off while meeting strict California Air Resource Board (CARB) requirements.

They use advanced 3D scanning during their research and development to make sure this converter fits just like the original equipment. The tubing is mandrel-bent for smooth exhaust flow, and the whole unit is made from highly corrosion-resistant stainless steel, with durable 308 stainless steel MIG welds. The spun body design replicates the OE style, and a single laser fusion weld helps prevent leaks. This compact design also helps with thermal efficiency. Because it's a direct-fit unit, you won't need to cut or weld anything; it bolts right up using the included gaskets and hardware, which means you won't have to reuse any old, corroded factory parts.

This converter is designed to meet or exceed CARB requirements, making it legal for use in California and other states that follow CARB emissions standards. It comes with all the necessary gaskets and hardware for installation, so you can get your Saab back on the road with confidence.
