2005-2010 Honda Odyssey 3.5L | Rear Catalytic Converter | OE#18160RGWA00/16351 - PHILTOP

The PHILTOP rear catalytic converter was a perfect fit for my vehicle and met EPA compliance standards. Installation was straightforward, and the build quality feels solid and durable. After replacing the old unit, engine performance improved, and the check engine light issue was resolved. For the price, it’s a reliable option that works just as well as more expensive OEM parts. Highly recommended for anyone needing a direct replacement without breaking the bank.!!!

1996-1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee 5.9L V8 | Catalytic Converter | OE#52101393/15820 - PHILTOP

I bought this catalytic converter for my ’98 Jeep Grand Cherokee and it has been a solid purchase. The part arrived well-packaged with all the gaskets and hardware needed, which made the install straightforward. It really was “plug and play” — no welding or drilling needed, just bolted right in.The quality feels good, with a sturdy stainless steel body that looks like it will hold up for the long haul. After installing, I immediately noticed smoother performance and slightly better fuel economy. The exhaust note is clean, and it passed emissions testing here with no issues (outside of the CA/NY/ME restrictions they note).For the price, it’s hard to beat. Shops were quoting me several hundred dollars more, so this was a big savings without sacrificing quality. Time will tell on longevity, but so far I’m very happy with the purchase and would recommend it to anyone needing a replacement converter for an older Cherokee or Grand Cherokee.

1996-1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee 5.9L V8 | Catalytic Converter | OE#52101393/15820 - PHILTOP

While the proof will ultimately be in the emissions test results, right off the bat this looks very promising. Every weld on this converter is well made, and the metal itself is heavy gauge. Even the heat shield feels very sturdy - nothing flexing or rattling when you pick it up. The catalyst itself is indeed on a ceramic substrate. The inlet side measures 2.5" on the inside diameter, while the outlet side (with the O2 bung) measures 2.25" on the outside diameter.
