Is the cat your problem?

Signs of a failing converter

On chipper engines the cat loads up with carbon and chokes exhaust flow. Common tells:

Down on power

Bogs under load, slow to recover.

📏

Won't reach full RPM

Can't hold rated speed.

Emissions / cat code

Tier 4 derate or fault light.

🌡

Running hot

Restricted exhaust, extra heat.

Quick check: rule out fuel and air filters first. If power returns with the exhaust cracked loose at the converter, it's the cat. Full diagnosis guide →

Common questions

How much does a rebuild cost?

About half the cost of a new OEM converter. It varies by unit — send your machine and engine for an exact quote.

How long does it take?

3–5 business days once we receive your core.

Do I have to send my old converter?

Yes — it's a core exchange. We rebuild your original housing and send it back.

Will it meet emissions requirements?

Our rebuilds are built to meet EPA emissions standards.

Why not just delete the cat instead?

Deleting usually causes more headaches than it solves — running without the converter can throw the engine out of spec, and on newer Tier 4 machines it often won't work anyway (the engine monitors the cat, so it can flag a fault or drop into a reduced-power derate). There can be warranty and compliance downsides too. A rebuild gets your power back the right way for about half of OEM.

What's the warranty?

Backed by a warranty against manufacturing defects.
