Will this fit my 1986 Honda Civic with the 1.5 engine?

Yes. It is listed for the 1985-1987 Civic with the 1.5-liter engine. Check your engine code and model year before ordering, since other Civics use different converters.

Is it legal in California?

Yes. It is CARB compliant, which is what California and other CARB-following states require for a replacement converter.

Do I need to weld it on?

No. It is a direct-fit unit with factory-style flanges, so it bolts to the existing exhaust. Universal converters are the ones that need welding or adapters.

What comes in the box?

The converter itself. Gaskets and mounting hardware are not listed, so plan to reuse or buy them separately.

What does open box mean here?

The unit is sold as an open-box item, so it may have been opened or returned. Inspect it on arrival and confirm the part number 36634 matches before installing.

Is this a performance part?

No. It is a stock replacement converter meant to restore emissions compliance, not to add power.

Our take on the MagnaFlow Direct Fit Catalytic Converter for 1985-1987 Honda Civic 1.5

This is a bolt-on replacement catalytic converter from MagnaFlow for the 1985-1987 Honda Civic with the 1.5-liter engine. It is CARB compliant, so it is legal for use in California and other states that follow CARB rules, and it uses stainless steel construction with factory-style flanges for a direct fit. That makes it a simpler choice than a universal converter, which needs welding or adapter work. It suits owners of these older Civics who need to pass emissions or replace a failed or rusted converter. MagnaFlow is a well-known exhaust brand, and direct-fit units are generally favored over universal ones for fit and install time.
