Product Details

MagnaFlow is known for making exhaust components that perform well and last. This OEM Grade Universal Catalytic Converter, part number 51659, is a solid choice when you need to replace your original converter. It's designed to meet or exceed federal emissions requirements for OBDII vehicles registered in states that follow federal EPA emission standards, helping to keep your check engine light off.

This converter features a spun body made from high-strength 16-gauge 409 stainless steel, which is really good at resisting corrosion and ensuring a long service life. The construction is compact and lightweight, which helps with installation, though keep in mind that welding is required for this universal part. MagnaFlow uses a single laser fusion weld on the spun body, which greatly reduces the chance of leaks, and the design aims to replicate factory flow dynamics to maintain your vehicle's original performance and fuel efficiency. It's a well-built replacement that's designed to be a reliable part of your exhaust system.

Because this is a universal converter, it's designed to fit a wide array of vehicles, including models like the BMW 330i, Chevrolet Camaro, and Cadillac Escalade. Remember that cutting and welding are necessary for installation, and this part is not CARB approved, so it cannot be shipped to California.
