2007-2012 Nissan Sentra 2.0L L4 | Catalytic Converter | OE#20010ET000/53769 - PHILTOPWe got this catalytic converter for our 2001 Honda Accord 2.3L because the check engine light wouldn’t go away and the car was making a weird noise. The part arrived well-packaged and looked sturdy, with good stainless steel quality. I liked that it’s EPA compliant too, which is important here in the U.S.My husband and a friend did the installation at home. It wasn’t super easy — everything did fit in the end, but it took some time to get things aligned properly. It’s not just a quick swap; you need patience and the right tools.Once it was installed, the check engine light turned off, the noise disappeared, and the car runs noticeably smoother now. I’m happy with the result overall. Just took off one star because it could’ve been a bit easier to install. But for the price, it’s a great deal.

2007-2012 Nissan Sentra 2.0L L4 | Catalytic Converter | OE#20010ET000/53769 - PHILTOPThe 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.

2000-2005 Subaru Impreza 2.5L H4 | Catalytic Converter | OE#44139FA161/54573 - PHILTOPThis 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.

2004-2006 Lexus RX330 3.3L V6 | Catalytic Converter | OE#2505220190/16392 - PHILTOPWork great, great price, fast shipping. Product came 2 days early. very pleased. The only thing it states as and exact fit, and it was except the new catalytic converter did not have 4 mounting brackets for the heat shields. It only had 2 which allows the heat shield to vibrate and be noisy. You either have to live with the noise or let the heat buildup around the front of the engine.
