2005-2019 Nissan Frontier 4.0L V6 | Catalytic Converter | OE#200109CD0A/16467 - PHILTOP

Bought for 2010 SE Nissan Frontier. The front cats fit no problem, the rear cats easily attached to the front cats with the included bolts and gaskets, but the flanges on the back of the rear cats did not align with the rest of the exhaust. They were just a bit cattywompus (just not painted I the right direction).We cut the flange off the muffler section of the stock exhaust about 2" back, and attached it to these rear cats with the provided bolts/nuts, then we aligned (with tow straps and grit) the exhaust to the now installed front exhaust system and rewelded it (to the stock muffler pipe). Theses rear flanges were simply not pointed in the context direction, but it was easier to cut the stock exhaust (more room) then cut the PHILTOP cats.This was not a big deal to us (me and husband) because we had the knowledge and equipment, but if you do not have a welder you will end up returning the product or bringing it to the muffler shop for this last step.

1997-2005 Buick Century 3.1L | Rear Catalytic Converter | OE#25325228/54626 - PHILTOP

I recently installed the PHILTOP Catalytic Converter Kit on my 2002 Chevrolet Impala, and I have to say it performed better than I expected. The fit was perfect, and the installation process was straightforward, even for someone like me who's not a mechanic. I noticed a significant improvement in my car's performance, which is a huge plus.What I appreciate the most is that it’s EPA compliant, so I didn’t have to worry about emissions testing in my area. Overall, it seems to be a reliable option for anyone needing a replacement catalytic converter. So far, I haven't encountered any issues, and I'm hopeful it will last me for years to come. If you're in the market for a catalytic converter for a Buick, Chevrolet, or Pontiac from the late '90s to early 2000s, I would recommend giving this kit a try.

I also checked, and it’s EPA compliant, which gives me peace of mind regarding emissions. Overall, for anyone looking to replace their catalytic converter, this kit is a solid choice that doesn’t break the bank.

2014-2017 Nissan Versa Note 1.6L L4 | Front Catalytic Converter | OE#200109KK0A/16794 - PHILTOP

Not for the Nissan Versa S. I believe it’s for the Nissan Note. The exhaust gasket didn’t fit on the manifold side, so I had to buy that from the parts store; other than that all the hardware worked. Also the design is different but still made it work. I’m happy with how much better it made the car feel. Also better fuel mileage. I recommend upgrading your intake, because your car can breathe a lot better with the high flow cats.
