no problem

its a common 'marketing' flaw with Magnaflow converters that they are all 'high flow' when they are not. They just starting making universal high flow 300cell per square inch about a year/1.5 ago. Which is a mild upgrade over stock, but not much & it will need to be welded in.

alot of new cars now even feature higher rated cores from the factory, with 600, 800, 1200 cpsi to which a "standard" 400cpsi core would then be considered "high flow". but in terms of our yaris, they use 400cpsi stock.

My shop we carry 100, 200 & 300cpsi higher flowing converters & i show people the difference & they are usually floored!
