Catalytic converter repair, “cat” repair, as most mechanics call it, has a great range of prices for the work! Back in Orlando when the “check engine” light came on in our Chrysler van, the service station we took it to quoted $750 to fix it. We decided to pass. Then today at lunch, here in Fort Collins, the Chrysler dealership quoted $1020 to fix it. I just laughed. The work got done at Hawker’s Auto for $250 later this afternoon. A much nicer price. I have a little better insight now into why Chrysler is going out of business.

The other features of Magnaflow catalytic converters include that these are custom- prepared for a direct factory-replacement fit. There is a considerable increase in the surface area over which the exhaust flows, resulting in significantly reduced limitations. All thanks to the honeycomb-patterned internal catalyst. Moreover, there is no need of welding or pipe bending when the Catalytic Converter bolts into place.
