Well built steel catalytic converter, it has a cheaper ceramic element with anti vibration packing around it. It seems like it will do the job for emissions compliance. We will have to put miles on to see how long it lasts.

But I'm not a mechanic and cannot assess performance until it's on the truck, and I got it for when I will eventually need one.(My G1 Ridgeline is now 20 years old, still runs like new, and the original exhaust still works fine, but does rattle a bit on start up.)If/when I need to install, it I'll update this review with any issues or complaints.

I was worried about replacing the catalytic converter on my 2008 Honda Odyssey, but this PHILTOP converter was exactly what I needed. The fit was absolutely perfect - bolted right on without any modifications. Installation was straightforward with the included gaskets, saving me hundreds compared to the dealership quote. My check engine light disappeared immediately and my van runs smoother than it has in years. Last weekend, we took a road trip to the mountains and I noticed significantly better gas mileage than before. The quality seems excellent and I'm confident it will last for years. If you're hesitating about this purchase for your Honda or Acura, don't - it's a great quality replacement at a reasonable price.

This PHILTOP catalytic converter kit is a practical option if you’re dealing with a check engine light or emissions issues on Subaru 2.5L models. It’s designed as a direct-fit replacement for vehicles like Forester, Outback, Impreza, and Legacy, so installation is generally straightforward without major modifications . Being EPA-compliant means it meets federal emissions standards (though it may not be legal in CARB states like California), which is important to check before buying. The construction is typically stainless steel with a ceramic substrate, built to handle heat and exhaust flow while helping reduce emissions and improve engine efficiency . Performance-wise, it does a good job for daily driving and restoring normal operation, though it’s not as long-lasting as premium OEM or high-end brands. Overall, it’s a cost-effective solution that works well if you need a reliable replacement without spending a lot.

Worked for Honda odyssey but engine light stays on. 02 sensor froze to converter and required a spacer to be put in. Vehicle still runs.

Lower priced unit compared to Walker or Boral, but unit has been working fine for several months now. Came with long bolts instead of studs for mounting them. Didn't use them, used hardware store studs.

Easy to install took about 2 hours to remove old cross pipe and install new one couple of studs came out of the head no bid deal just make sure no aluminum is on the threads the studs for the mid pipe come with a squared end making it easy to install without a stud extractor tool. Now i will wait and see how long this replacement will last. You will need to replace your o2 sensors if you damage them otherwise you can reuse the ones from your old one.Installation:4/5Quality:3.5/5
