Magnaflow 49 State Direct Fit Catalytic Converter Reviews
Love it - excellent fit, easy to install and I noticed the gains right away, however I also installed a Dynomax Super Turbo Cat Back system at the same time. The two combined offer an awesome sound that isn't offensive, just a low rumble, and GREAT performance.
Worked great, canceled code that was being given for O2 sensor, worked great with Magna Flow muffler
Don't expect to receive what is pictured. This has no heat shield, and the pipes are welded on crooked. Certainly not a factory style direct fit, not in my professional opinion at least. I honestly hope this is just a Chinese forgery, because Magnaflow is supposed to have a better reputation than this. Unless Quadratec has let their standards drop. I expect better, and will be returning this. I would have better luck buying off eBay.
