Will this catalytic converter keep my check engine light off?

This Magnaflow catalytic converter is designed to meet or exceed California Air Resource Board (CARB) requirements. By properly functioning as a replacement for your original converter, it should help keep your check engine light off if it was related to emissions.

Do I need to weld this converter in place?

No, this is a direct-fit catalytic converter. It is designed to bolt directly in place of your original converter, meaning no cutting or welding is required for installation, provided you have the proper tools.

What material is this catalytic converter made of?

The tubing is made from high-strength 16-gauge 409 stainless steel, which offers good resistance to corrosion. The welds are durable MIG welds.

Product Details

Magnaflow is known for making exhaust components that flow well and last. This direct-fit catalytic converter is built for your 1979-1981 Toyota Celica, specifically designed to meet California's strict emissions standards. If you're dealing with a check engine light related to emissions or need to replace a failing converter in a CARB-restricted state, this is a solid option.

This converter uses mandrel-bent tubing, which means the bends are consistent and don't restrict exhaust flow like crushed bends can. It's constructed from 16-gauge 409 stainless steel for good corrosion resistance, and the welds are durable MIG welds. Magnaflow uses 3D scanning to ensure the fit and function match the original equipment, and the single laser fusion weld helps prevent leaks. Because it's a direct-fit unit, installation is straightforward with the proper tools – no cutting or welding is needed.

This converter is CARB compliant, meaning it's legal for use in California and other states that follow CARB emissions guidelines. It's designed to replace OE parts like 17410-11690 and 17410-11700, and includes the necessary gaskets for a proper seal.
