Disappointing Converter, Failed Emissions Test

After I put it to the test, my emissions results came back worse than before. The installation was easy enough, but it didn't seem to make any difference..

Pros
  • Easy installation.
Cons
  • Failed emissions test.

not a straight fit it's pyof (provide your fasteners)

description says 'straight fit' which seems to be true, it fits in place but how do you fasten it on the exhaust manifold without screws/studs ? When removing the original part, the screws/studs are pressed into the flange that is connected to the exhaust manifold. It has excess material outside of the welds on the corners that prevents the heat shield from seating properly, preventing attachment near the crankshaft sensor. Having to improvise was a setup nightmare, instead of a 2 hour job it…

Pros
  • exhaust and emissions
Cons
  • i won't say anything
