MagnaFlow Conv DF 01-03 Mercedes SL500 Passenger Side CA

This Magnaflow California Grade CARB Compliant Direct-Fit Catalytic Converter is what you get when you need to replace the passenger side converter on your 2001-2003 Mercedes-Benz S500. It's designed to keep your check engine light off and ensure your vehicle passes emissions testing, especially in California and other CARB-restricted states. You'll find a Torca clamp included, which helps make installation straightforward.

Magnaflow builds this converter with free-flowing, mandrel-bent tubing to maintain smooth exhaust flow, which is important for both performance and fuel efficiency. The construction uses highly corrosion-resistant stainless steel tubing, specifically 16-gauge 409 stainless steel for the tubing and 308 stainless steel for the MIG welds, giving it a long service life. They use advanced 3D scanning during development to replicate the original equipment's design and fit precisely, meaning no cutting or welding is needed for installation. The spun body design and a single laser fusion weld are used to greatly reduce the chance of exhaust leaks, and its compact, low-mass design helps with thermal efficiency.

This converter is specifically designed to meet or exceed California Air Resource Board requirements. It has undergone additional testing to ensure it complies with CARB guidelines for legal use in California and other states with strict emissions regulations. It interchanges with several original equipment part numbers, including 220 490 07 20 80 and 220 490 07 20.
