This is the downstream underbody converter for the Q7 3.0, not the close-coupled unit at the manifold, and it serves the left bank. The shell and tubing are stainless steel over a ceramic substrate, spun to a round body 16.125 inches long, with a 2.5 inch inlet flange, a 2.25 inch outlet flange and a single midbed sensor port. It bolts in against the factory mounting points with no cutting or welding, and inlet and outlet gaskets plus outlet hardware come in the box. This is the federal EPA part.
