Our take on the AP Exhaust 643040 Catalytic Converter

The AP Exhaust 643040 is a direct-fit, OBDII-engineered catalytic converter with a ceramic honeycomb substrate and 409 stainless steel body. It bolts in place of the factory unit and includes a gasket and sensor port, so it suits owners replacing a failed or rusted converter on an OBDII vehicle. Against universal weld-in converters it is easier to install; against OEM units it is a lower-cost aftermarket alternative, though it is not legal for sale or use in California or on California-emissions vehicles. Reviewers generally report a good fit and quiet operation, with some noting the stainless steel is thinner than factory metal.

Questions and answers

Will this fit my car?
It is a direct-fit unit for specific OBDII applications, so check the part number against your vehicle's year, make, model and engine before buying. It is not a universal converter.
Is it legal in California?
No. It is not legal for sale or use in California or on California-emissions vehicles. Check your state's rules before installing.
Does it come with a gasket?
Yes, a gasket is included, and the unit has a sensor port for the oxygen sensor.
Will it fix my check-engine light?
It can clear a P0420 code caused by a failed converter, but not one caused by an engine misfire, bad sensor or exhaust leak. Diagnose the cause first.
How does it compare with an OEM converter?
It costs less and fits the same flange points, but the stainless steel is thinner than factory metal and durability may be shorter.
Can I install it myself?
Yes, on most applications it unbolts and bolts back on with hand tools. Rusted fasteners are the main obstacle.
