Technical Inquiries

Can you tell me what part fits my car?

You can start your searchherewhere you’ll provide your vehicle information, including year, make, model and sub-model. If you have further questions, please contact our technical departmenthere.

What is an EFN?

EFN stands for “Engine Family Number”. It is found on the emissions control tag underneath the hood of your vehicle. This number is needed to ensure the correct part is provided for your California compliant vehicle. It is illegal to equip a registered California or New York vehicle with a federal and/or non-California compliant part. For more information, please visit the following page.

What is the difference between OEM grade and Standard HM grade?

Standard grade products are manufactured with the required precious metals to be compliant with a properly tuned and operating vehicle.

HM and OEM grade products are designed to function with the Engine Family Number specific designs calling for more precious metals to be used. HM and OEM grades ensure both tailpipe and engine management system compliance is adhered to, while keeping the “check engine light” off. In addition, the extra loading of precious metals will allow for proper engine management interaction and provide additional emissions conversion for vehicles which may not be running at 100%.

Should I buy a universal or direct-fit?

Both options will perform equally. Direct-fit parts are easier to install as they are designed to be bolt-on with zero welding required. Universal parts will require professional installation that may include cutting and welding in order to fit. To check the available parts for your vehicle, please start your searchhere. If you have additional questions, you can contact ushere.

Why is my part rattling?

Depending on vehicle and weather conditions, internal components may break loose or become defective. If this happens, please initiate a return here and choose “Warranty” as the return reason. We will process the return and ship you free of charge either a brand new part or replacement component (depending on the severity of the damage). Please include any details during your return process as to why you believe the part to be defective, including the sound you’re hearing. This will help us process the warranty exchange quicker.

Why doesn’t my part fit?

If you’re having issues with your purchased product fitting your vehicle, please contact ushere and one of our dedicated Customer Service representatives will contact you. Please include your name, phone number, part number ordered, shipping address, vehicle information (year, make, model and sub-model) and any details as to why it’s not fitting.

What is your warranty?

Please see ourwarranty policyfor full details.

Will a MagnaFlow part void my factory warranty?

No, it will not. It is illegal for a dealer, installer or manufacturer to deny you the OE warranty because you’ve changed the exhaust system. Please refer to the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act of 1975, 15 USC, 2302 and Clean Air Act 42 of USA code 7541 for more information.

What materials are MagnaFlow performance exhaust systems made of?

All of our exhaust systems use premium quality components, including 409 stainless steel, with the exception of our Diesel Aluminized product line.

What's the difference between stainless steel and aluminized steel performance mufflers?

Stainless steel mufflers have a polished stainless steel shell and are made of a 100% stainless construction. Nothing looks better or lasts longer than stainless steel.

Aluminized mufflers have stainless internals and necks, but have an aluminized outer shell. Also, the aluminized steel has only a protective coating that is more susceptible to rust.

I received code PO420 on my vehicle. What do I do?

By definition, P0420 code reads “bank one Catalyst Efficiency low”. A vehicle displaying this code indicates that something is causing the converter to operate out of specification. Further diagnostics and/or inspection is required before determining the part is defective.
