this kit is a solid option if you’re working on a Chevy or Buick with the 1.4T engine because it comes with the gasket included and the fitment lines up cleanly with the Encore Trax and similar models from the 2013 to 2018 range, and the welds and overall build feel sturdy right out of the box which is important when you’re replacing a factory converter on these small turbo engines. The installation is pretty straightforward if you’ve done exhaust work before since the bolt holes match up well and the kit seals tightly once everything is torqued down, and being EPA compliant makes it a reliable replacement for states that don’t require CARB parts. Once installed it helps clear up exhaust restriction issues and gets rid of the rattling or sulfur smell that shows up when the old converter starts failing, making it a dependable choice for restoring performance without paying dealership prices.

Fits perfect. Improved design at the flange so you don’t need an angled socket like the original.

Perfect fit on the engine side, on the muffler side you may need an adapter if your's is like mine where both pieces are flared out. Other than that it was and is a perfect fit. I fully stand behind this company and recommend purchasing from them.
