This catalytic converter kit is engineered to speed up exhaust breakdown and uses mandrel-bent tubes to boost airflow through your vehicle's exhaust system. As a result, horsepower and torque are increased. Not CARB compliant.
Features:
Note: This product cannot be shipped to or used in California, Colorado, Maine, or New York.
This catalytic converter is vehicle-specific, so the included clamps and hooks connect to the factory flanges and hanger locations, making installation quick and easy. It includes mandrel bent tubes that reduce exhaust turbulence to improve airflow.
A. MagnaFlow engineers its converters with maximum airflow in mind. The large surface area of the honeycomb ceramic catalyst combines with a detailed coating process to allow the most exhaust to flow through the converter. 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 hamper 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.
The OEM took many months to get the product into their manufacturing queue. There were a couple aspects of the converter that were not exactly like OEM, related to mounting, not primary fit features. Enough difference that I installed because the dealer would have balked at it. However, through all the delays by the OEM in producing the product, the eTrailer team was very responsive and helpful in tracking status and communicating with the OEM on status in what was a difficult situation (catalytic converter production was significantly impacted by resource issues). Regardless of product, I can recommend working with etrailer!
