2009-2017 Chevrolet Traverse 3.6L V6 | Rear Catalytic Converter | OE#20906951/16574 - PHILTOP

I needed a new catalytic converter for my 2015 Traverse and this PHILTOP one fit perfectly. Installation was straightforward and it's been working flawlessly for the past three months. The quality seems comparable to OEM but at a much better price. Last month I took a road trip across the country and had no issues whatsoever - passed emissions testing with flying colors when I got back. The EPA compliance gives me peace of mind that I'm not violating any regulations. Definitely recommend this for anyone needing a replacement converter for their GM vehicle.

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.

2001-2005 Lexus IS300 3.0L L6 | Catalytic Converter | OE#54666 - PHILTOP

The upper cat shields are sharp making it difficult to get the stock bolts back in. It came with hardware we really couldn't use so plan new OE bolts or clean up the originals. It was a tight fit to get it in place and had help getting the header bolts started. I was about ready to pull the fender before my buddy came over to help. It definitely woke the engine up with the stock cats being plugged. I tied it to a Banks cat back exhaust and like the deeper exhaust note. I did replace the cheap 2.5" clamp that came with it. I am happy with the product and value of this purchase.
