It’s functions best in my review

I drive a slammed car, I just needed a quick replacement and this works. It was a few inches short but just use a vise grip and then put the bolts in. I have a weird smell after WOT (wide open throttle) not sure if it’s my car or the cat but it does it’s job for now. So all in all great product

Pros
  • Fit great easy install
Cons
  • Didn't fit... Needed to be welded

2006 Altima. Hmmm. Took a little adjusting to make it fit

First off, it's on, runs quiet and passed emissions. Good!Putting it on was a little hassle, even for my buddy who runs a small garage. Took us 30 minutes just to figure out how to adjust it so it would fit correctly between the two ends.It's doable but just be aware it's not going to be in in less than 30 minutes.

Pros
  • Fit my 03 Altima perfectly! Very easy to install.
Cons
  • Installation instructions are unclear and difficult to follow

This converter is not working Properly

I don’t know but I installed the Catalyst back in November not many miles on the part. But the. Low flow for Cadillac converter code came back on This part says it’s a high flow part. So what’s going on. Can you help me with. This problem Please.

Pros
  • Very worth the money
Cons
  • The product doesn't fit properly and requires modifications

Easy Installation for my opinion

Hardest part was taken off the old one. Just remember recycle your old one. I got as much money for the old as I did for the new so I made money back.

Pros
  • I have 2005 Nissan Altima and it mounted right up perfectly- great products
Cons
  • This item failed after less than 8 weeks. Car wouldn’t even pull its own weight.

Don’t trust the bolts.

Bolts are trash! One came already stripped out and one broke while tightening so I had to take the whole part back off! Frustrating!

Pros
  • Nissan Altima
Cons
  • The product may cause a decrease in fuel economy

Expectation not meet

Expectation is key, although I know this item won't be seen after installed. And the way it looks should not effect how it works. But the picture you see is not how the item was when I opened the box. It was dirty, the welds looked hand run. I guess that when I order something, I just expect that it would matched the photo and description. I saw clean even welds in the photo, I got uneven dirty welds.

Pros
  • HIGHER EFFICIENCY & QUALITY: Internal ceramic substrates contain ample metal catalysts and offer a larger surface area to fully react; Adopts heavy-duty T409 stainless steel shell that highly resists heat, rust, and corrosion for longer service life, no worry about bending or melting.
Cons
  • The warranty is limited and doesn't cover all kinds of damages

Sounds good! good for me

Great product but did not come with the mounting hardware. Best Buy lowered the price for me to buy the items needed to finish the installation

Pros
  • EPA CERTIFIED: EPA Federal Standard Certificated, all AUTOSAVER88's catalytic converters are stamped with an exclusive EPA number on the shell. AUTOSAVER88 offers a 5-year or 50,000 miles limited warranty, for any manufacturer defect.(NOTE: Professional installation would be highly recommended)
Cons
  • The installation process is time-consuming and difficult

Does not fit perfectly but workable.

It did not fit my model as perfectly as the original, the hook part was not possible to slide in. Other than that the screws did not exactly fit. Nissan altima 03 SL

Pros
  • It was easy once I the old one cut away
Cons
  • This is shorter than original piping. Will not line up with the support hanger.

Buy if you want a lot of noise

My car sounds louder now than when I had an old rusty muffler with holes in it and an old wore out converter. My car now sounds like some sports car that a teenager might like to drive. This was not worth the money saved. I will just need to spend more now to get a proper converter.

Pros
  • Little short but was able to shift things around and make it work. Saved myself a lot of money!
Cons
  • Did not fit, too short and missing all bolts and attachments. Highly upset.
