MagnaFlow ceramic catalysts have large surface areas to speed up the exhaust breakdown process while a ribbed, stainless steel body and external shield further protect them. Universal design. Not CARB compliant.
Features:
- Ceramic catalyst engineered for maximum airflow
- Honeycomb design and a thick, detailed coating process allow the converter to break down as much exhaust as possible
- Greater concentrations of catalytically active materials set it apart from other converters by increasing the volume of chemical reactions that break down harmful gases
- Ribbed body encases the ceramic to reduce expansion and distortion when the converter reaches its high operating temperature
- Ribs form channels that hold the ceramic in proper alignment
- Heavy-gauge, stainless steel shield is seam welded to the body
- Forms a strong bond to prevent the ceramic from shifting
- Includes ribbing as a final layer of protection against heat damage
- Reinforces the structural stability of the entire converter
Specs:
- Overall dimensions: 16" long x 6-1/2" wide x 5" tall
- Body length: 12"
- Inlet/outlet diameter: 2-1/2"
- Inlet/outlet position: center/center
- Engine size: 6.2L EPA
- Not legal for sale or use in California
- Test weight: 6,375 lbs
- Converter shape: oval
- Converter function: OBD-II
- Limited lifetime warranty
Note: This product cannot be shipped to or used in California, Colorado, Maine, or New York.
A. MagnaFlow engineers its heavy metal converters with maximum airflow in mind. The large surface area of the honeycomb ceramic catalyst combines with a thick, detailed coating process to allow the most exhaust to flow through the converter. In contrast with most converters, these heavy metal converters contain greater concentrations of catalytically active materials, thereby increasing the volume of chemical reactions that break down harmful gases. Innovative technology allows each catalyst to both oxidize and reduce harmful emissions.
B. A ribbed body encases the ceramic to reduce expansion and distortion when the converter reaches its high operating temperature. The ribs form channels that hold the ceramic in proper alignment and protect the cushioning mat from direct exposure to exhaust gases.
C. MagnaFlow converters have a smooth-flowing, 1/2" lap joint where the neck and body connect. This joint prevents the neck from extending into the body, where it could impede exhaust flow.
D. MagnaFlow maintains separate dies for several converter body sizes and corresponding neck sizes. This process eliminates the need to adapt neck sizes to make them fit on a single converter body size, which would increase back pressure and decrease airflow and horsepower.
E. The ceramic catalysts are seam welded to a heavy-gauge, stainless steel converter body. Furthermore, a stainless steel heat shield is seam welded to the inner converter body. This style of welding forms a strong bond between the converter's components and prevents the ceramics from shifting.
F. Ribbing on the shield offers a final layer of protection against heat damage while reinforcing the structural stability of the entire converter.

- Replacement Catalytic Converter Recommendation for 2006 Volkswagen Jetta 2.0T GTIWe have a direct fit cat that will work on your 2006 Volkswagen Jetta GTI 2.0T that would be the much better option. For that we have the part # MF99006HM that will weld right in place of your current one. Or we have the entire catted section of your exhaust that is part # MF49165. That being said the inlet/outlet of the # MF91066 that you referenced matches the custom fit option I first mentioned so it would fit in that regard. It is a few inches shorter though.

This means the engine generates more pollutants. The most common causes for this are 1) a plugged fuel filter or weak fuel pump; 2) plugged or dirty fuel injectors; 3) a bad mass airflow sensor (MAF); 4) software that needs to be updated and 5) a vacuum leak (intake manifold gaskets, vacuum hoses, PCV hoses, etc). The two cat kits we offer for your 1996 Ford Explorer 4.0L V6 are MagnaFlow parts...
view full answer... - Can I Replace Only One Catalytic Converter on 2006 Ford F150I spoke with my contact at MagnaFlow and he does not recommend bolting the catalytic converter in place. The application is designed to be welded and will not have any bolt holes. It is not not necessary to replace both catalytic converters if only one of them needs replacing because the converters work independently of one another. You can certainly use the OEM muffler and pipes that are currently on the truck. The converter will sit in front of the converter so you can keep your stock...
view full answer... - Are Catalytic Converters DirectionalThe P0420 DTC you mention means that one or both of the catalytic converters isn't operating as efficiently as it or they should be. Catalytic converters aren't usually directional, but if the converter has the port for the o2 sensor built into it, and if the converter's been reversed so that the downstream sensor is sitting upstream of the converter, it would explain why you're getting the DTC.

If you live in any other state you can use the 49 state converters. For a California model on a 1998 Ford Explorer with the X designation in the VIN use # MF447206. Check the 8th digit of the VIN. For 49 state converters use # MF23315 for direct fit and E designation. Use # MF23313 for direct fit with X designation. Or you can use universal converter # MF99005HM for E designation or # MF99006HM for...
