does not match what is stated.

didn't fit. It has a three-bolt flange connection with a muffler. My car has a two-hole flange. It was advertised for my 2006 Saturn Ion 2.2 liter engine. Waiting for warm weather to install. I would like to return. takes care of the shipping. send me a label

Pros
  • Spare parts
Cons
  • Makes me nervous

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Appearance

Perfect replacement for 2004 Saturn Ion-3 Quad Coupe

Would have been a perfect fit but also had to replace the resonator back with the muffler as it was rusted (and removed) beyond recognition on the flange that connected to the back of the old cat. Found a $60 local resonator and bought a saber saw to cut the old one open and get it out from under the car. Much better than spending hours trying to weld a new flange to an old resonator. We kept the old muffler and simply cut the old pipe about 4" from the muffler and used the 4" piece to connect…

Pros
  • Catalytic Converters and Parts
Cons
  • The list will be long.
