Every vehicle on the road is a potential source of pollution, harming us one way or another. As a solution, one of the steps taken by government agencies is to enact laws that will regulate the amount of gases being emitted by vehicles. And to keep up with these orders and laws, vehicle manufacturers have made refinements in their production lines. And one of the products of this extensive technological study is the crafting of the catalytic converters which treat the exhaust before it ever leaves the vehicle and removes a lot of pollution along the way.

The catalytic converter is the device that is used to reduce the toxicity of emissions from the internal combustion engine. This specific performance part was widely introduced on series-production vehicles in the US market for the 1975 year model to comply with the tightening regulations on auto exhaust. The catalytic converter provides an environment for a chemical reaction to convert the toxic combustion by-products to less toxic gases. The Magnaflow brand has been at the forefront of crafting one of the best catalytic converters in the auto parts market.

The brand manufactures a variety of these products, but perhaps the most well-known type is the universal catalytic converter. The main benefit with the universal catalytic converter is that this one unit may cover a wide variety of vehicle makes and models. Mounting this catalytic converter often requires the use of welding and a tube bending equipment that is readily available among most professional installers. For the Dodge line of vehicles, the 94000 series catalytic converter is available. It can be fitted in front or at the rear. This OBDII-compliant device is universal and shaped like the standard oval, with a 2.5” in or out opening, 4” tall, 6.5” wide, 12” body, and an overall length of 16”. The installation of this part requires cutting and welding.
