New Converter Installed394 viewsThis is how it looks in the finished installation. Not much of a converter, is it? Supposedly it is fully legal, according to the company. It passes emissions no problem. But I think if someone actually looked at this during an inspection, I could run into trouble. I lost low end torque after this installation, but gained more power at higher rpms. I would have gone with a GM part but the price was ludicrous.Aug 23, 2008

Old converter, original OEM installation404 viewsThis shows what the original converter looked like as it was installed. I changed this because all the insides were loose and rattled around. It didn't hurt the performance of the car, but it drove me crazy. The car sounded like a piece of junk.Aug 23, 2008
