MagnaFlow Conv DF 96-99 BMW 318 1.9L I4

If your 1992-1998 BMW 318i is showing a check engine light related to emissions, or if the original catalytic converter is damaged, replacing it with a direct-fit unit like this one from Magnaflow is a solid plan. This converter is designed to meet Federal emissions requirements for OBDII Federally registered vehicles, helping you pass inspections and keep your car running cleanly. It's built to function just like the original equipment, ensuring your engine performs as it should.

Magnaflow builds this converter using corrosion-resistant stainless steel tubing, including 16-gauge 409 stainless steel for the main tubing and 308 stainless steel for the welds, which helps it last a long time. The tubing is mandrel-bent to maintain the factory design and geometry, and the collector is precisely stamped for optimal exhaust flow. This attention to detail means your engine can breathe efficiently, which helps with fuel economy. The spun body design replicates the original equipment, and a single laser fusion weld is used to greatly reduce the chance of exhaust leaks. For easier installation, this converter comes with the necessary gaskets and a Torca clamp, so you won't need to cut or weld anything on your exhaust system.

This Magnaflow converter is designed to be a direct replacement, meaning it fits right onto your existing exhaust system. It includes an O2 port plug and a flange gasket to help ensure a proper seal. Remember, this converter is compliant with Federal/EPA emission systems but is not CARB approved, so it cannot be shipped to California.
