Technical Description and Specifications
This catalytic converter measures 23.5 inches in overall length, with a height of 8 inches and a width of 7 inches, designed to fit precisely within the exhaust system of Subaru Baja, Forester, and Impreza vehicles.

Installation Notes and Tips
Ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and cooled before beginning installation. The included inlet and outlet gaskets (EG18294A and EG18294B) should be installed to prevent exhaust leaks. Verify that the 5 bolt fixed flange inlet and 2 bolt fixed flange outlet align correctly with the vehicle’s exhaust system. Since this catalytic converter does not include O2 sensor ports, retain the original sensor locations and hardware. Use the Davico Decarbonizing Induction Kit 1540ea as recommended to maintain optimal exhaust system performance.
