MagnaFlow's California Grade converter replaces the downpipe and underbody converter on the 2.0L turbo four as one CARB compliant assembly, 72.5 in end to end. The spun body is built from 16 gauge 409 stainless steel tubing with 308 stainless steel MIG welds over a ceramic substrate, with a flange inlet, a pipe connection outlet, and two ports for the pre and post converter oxygen sensors. OE sized barbed 410 stainless steel hangers and a Torca AccuSeal clamp are included, the clamp applying a full 360 degree load without distorting the pipe. CARB Executive Order D-193-200 makes it legal for installation in all 50 states.
