MagnaFlow Conv Universal 3 inch OEM

When you're replacing a catalytic converter, you want to make sure you're getting a part that's built to last and will keep your check engine light off. This MagnaFlow OEM Grade Universal Catalytic Converter comes with the converter itself, ready for installation. Its universal design means it can be adapted to fit a wide range of vehicles, including many BMW 3-series and Chevrolet Express vans, though cutting and welding are required to get it properly fitted. This isn't a direct bolt-on part, so be prepared for that part of the job.

What sets this converter apart is its construction. It's made from high-strength 16-gauge 409 stainless steel tubing, which is really good at resisting corrosion and should give you a long service life. The welds are durable 308 stainless steel MIG welds, which are designed to reduce the chance of leaks. MagnaFlow also designed this converter to mimic the flow dynamics of an OEM converter, so you shouldn't see a drop in performance or fuel efficiency. It's also compact and lightweight, which helps with installation in tight spaces and contributes to better thermal efficiency.

This converter is EPA-compliant for OBDII federally registered vehicles with Federal/EPA emission systems, meaning it's designed to meet or exceed federal emissions requirements. Just remember, it's not CARB approved, so it can't be shipped to California. If you're looking for a well-built, EPA-compliant universal converter that will help keep your vehicle running clean, this is a solid option.
