Good value catalytic converter that is direct-fit. Our local auto shop installed it for us because our 2014 Kia soul 2.0 liter would not pick up speed and was making a crunching noise. It is definitely picking up speed better and seems to be working great. We tried everything else so I really hope this fixes thing a for good. Decent quality and I would recommend

I ordered this Philtop catalytic converter kit for a 2015 Kia Soul+ 2.0L. On arrival, the part appears to be good quality. The metal feels solid and heavy, the welds look strong, and a bag of hardware is included.The part fit just as perfectly as the one removed. All of the hardware was there, I had to make no adjustments and everything works. So far, the car has stopped throwing the code and everything seems good.

Really amped to find a high-flow Catalytic Converter for my out-of-production 20-year-old Nissan SUV. Getting harder to find parts for the SUV unless sourcing from salvage yards. This part is "heavy" stainless steel and looks high quality - see photos. Comes with installation hardware and an installation booklet (dual language in English and Spanish). Is approved in the state I live in. Should pass the state vehicle inspection after installed!

This catalytic converter is the secondary cat that comes after the first two cats in the Acura TL. This is a similar setup to the other Honda V6's. This catalytic converter won't throw any codes (at least not in my model) because it's not attached to any O2 sensors. I just replaced mine since my old cat was starting to rust over.I had no issues installing this, it lined up directly with my exhaust. I don't necessarily consider this a "crucial" part since this cat won't throw any codes, and it's "EPA-compliant." I live in Texas so emissions aren't really a big deal here if you aren't throwing any codes.The honeycomb on the inside seems to be holding up. It's not as expensive as OEM because there aren't as many valuable metals in this cat (which is fine, that's how EPA-compliant cats are), but it functions as it should.
