Terrible Performance of Exhaust Component

Based on my observations, the catalytic converter has caused a decrease in my engine's performance. While the emissions levels may be lower, the decrease in power is not worth it. The only pro is that it was easy to install. However, the decrease in power outweighs any benefits.

Pros
  • High quality construction and materials for long-lasting durability and performance.
Cons
  • Requires professional installation, which adds to the overall cost of the product.

Missing Welds

The part looks nice but I noticed that the long nuts for the internal heat shield are missing (not sure what it's called) as you can see in the photo Bolts not included for the either lower part, I could use the original ones but the photos show that they are welded to it. I'll try to replace it and hopefully I get one just like the one they show.

Pros
  • Gaskets Included
Cons
  • Upgradable

Do not do this, but prohibited by DAVICO

Absolutely the worst workmanship I have ever seen. My old part looked better than this one. Welds were bad, for someone it was the first time. I had to remove the slag from the inlet. Definitely not an OEM as advertised, nothing fits together. I didn't fit any exhaust hardware and my original cat's OEM hardware didn't fit because the new cat's thread pitch was different. I paid $150 more than the cheapest in hopes of better quality, but that's definitely NOT the case. I will never buy a DAVICO…

Pros
  • for installation in New York City in vehicles equipped with California emissions systems; Illegal for use in California
Cons
  • poorly designed
