Had to take the day off the work with last minute notice due to UPS requiring signature and changing the date. I don't like the exhaust but that's not Hottexhaust fault.
Wrote an email, wondering why one came from Canada and the other from Oceanside, CA and why the SKU number on the delivery email didn't seem to match the SKU # I ordered. But never got an answer, guess its okay.
Ordered new Catalytic Converter: User friendly website, shows product details, easy to find the parts needed, and competitive pricing. Excellent service if you have any questions. Fast and efficient ordering process. Appreciates the parts and service.
Cheap prices and great communication. Shipping was a little slow this time but it was a production delay. Thanks!
Arrived on time. And welded in perfectly. Now let's hope those numbers on the catalytic converter are correct for the car
It fit with just a few connectors and it also looks like the old (2011) Magnaflow that was removed, and not the one pictured.
I needed a CA CARB Catalytic converter, one was on discount SAVING ME HUNDREDS $$$$! It shipped very quickly as well. Passed CO emissions the day after install! 10/10 recommend
Wonderful experience installing... the sound is amazing!, it's like experiencing the introduction to 2 fast 2 furious for the first time. The 5.0 mustang guy lovessss the sound.
I purchased the CA CARB cat for my L320 2013 Range Rover Sport Supercharged as I had the engine replaced and after replacement I had error codes p0420 and p0430. I purchased the CA CARB cat that is not the mangaflow option. The non mangaflow CA CARB that I bought and had installed has resolved the p0420 and p0430 cat codes. When Land Rover charges $4500 per cat in 2025 this option is definitely worth trying as it resolved the codes for me. My original catalytic converters had 162,000 miles on them. My only concern is the welds on the catalytic converter are pretty ugly but it did not leak and I believe there is a lifetime warranty on craftsmanship. There is some modification required as one of the cats comes in two pieces and the original is one piece.
Great Communication and updates for a catalytic converter for a 35 year old VW Vanagon! Recently received with much gratitude...
Great my cat shipped fast and fit my exhaust, I would like a little bit cleaner mating surface on the flanges.
Seems to be well constructed with nice stainless steel, and good welds. The shipping was also fast and headache free.
I am happy with my experience with hotexhaust. The price was very attractive, no shipping or tax makes it even better. Just be prepared to wait 7-10 days. I was fine with it because I saved over $200
Upstream convertors arrived in just a few days and included all hardware needed - crush gaskets, studs and nuts. However, they were NOT a perfect OEM fit. The pipes inside both convertor outlets were longer than those on the factory cats I was replacing, resulting in the downstream cats not being able to fully seat into the upstream. I had to chamfer the edges of the pipe on the new cats, and pie cut/reduce the diameter of the downstream cats in order for them to mate correctly. Not a huge deal if you have the tools, but would be a show stopper if you didn't. Cats seem to be performing well. No more codes and truck passed inspection.
Third purchase from hottexhaust. Rapid service, exact products requested, fair pricing. What more could you want?
After the second failure of the catalytic converter on my 2015 Subaru Outback, the dealership said I was going to have to pay the full replacement price of $4500. 00! I purchased a cheap replacement from a different company, but as the old saying goes "You get what you pay for". The second time around, I chose Hottexhaust for my catalytic converter, and the difference was like night and day. The price was already a lot less than Subarus price, but I got a discount coupon as well. Theirs was more like the original OEM version, with the insulation and heat shields installed, and included all the hardware needed to complete the job. They kept me informed of the order and shipping status along the way. The install took less than 2 hours, and it fit perfectly. Needless to say, that I am very pleased with my experience with Hottexhaust!
Took a while to remove old exhaust, including cutting off a couple clamps with reciprocating saw… but all in all ok experience.
Y pipe back exhaust everything went together real easy total time maybe a hour with removing old system and let me tell you "WOW" the smooth mellow tone is something else would recommend this exhaust system 100 time's over thanks for building a great product
It was a pleasure to get a good deal on these cats, fast shipping and sales men where a pleasure to talk to, I will order from them again, thank you
I placed my order and received email later the next day saying the ETA is July 21?
And then this was my next email from the company ever since so I just wanna confirm the product is still being shipped right?
Answer: I needed California CARB catalytic converter‘s for my 2002 Toyota 4 runner. Wouldn't pass smog. I called and spoke with John to see if they had my catalytic converter‘s. I needed to front and rear unfortunately. John from Hottexhaust said that he had them in stock along with the muffler I needed. They. Shipped out to me in five days from Magnaflow. If I were you, I'd call 1st to see them if they have exactly the parts you need.
Answer: All prices listed in USD but pretty sure you can call them for a quote in CAD. Free shipping included too
