In the \u003cstrong\u003e2UZ-FE\u003c\/strong\u003e V8, aged OEM ceramic substrates degrade, sinter, or suffer structural fracture, creating exhaust gas backpressure that chokes volumetric efficiency. This exhaust restriction increases exhaust gas temperatures (EGT), limits top-end power, and triggers persistent P0420\/P0430 downstream O2 sensor fault codes. Furthermore, factory carbon steel connection flanges are vulnerable to severe oxidation and stress cracking at the manifold joints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered specifically for the \u003cstrong\u003eXK30\/XK40\u003c\/strong\u003e platform, this matched driver and passenger side assembly replaces the factory units with robust direct-fit hardware. The converter features a heavy-gauge 409 stainless steel shell engineered to resist road brine and external corrosion. Internally, a flow-optimized, high-porosity ceramic honeycomb substrate is wash-coated with targeted precious metal loadings to maintain optimal stoichiometric conversion rates. Precision laser-cut flanges mate seamlessly to factory exhaust manifolds and intermediate pipes, retaining standard oxygen sensor port locations without cutting, custom bending, or MIG welding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eFitment\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e2000-2002 Toyota Tundra\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e4.7L 2UZ-FE \/ XK30, XK40\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eStock Output\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e245 hp \/ 315 lb-ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eReplaces OEM Part #\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e2000-2002 TOYOTA TUNDRA RIGHT \u0026amp; LEFT 4.7L\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2000 Toyota Tundra Base, SR5, Limited (4.7L V8 2UZ-FE)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2001 Toyota Tundra Base, SR5, Limited (4.7L V8 2UZ-FE)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2002 Toyota Tundra Base, SR5, Limited (4.7L V8 2UZ-FE)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this fit the XK30\/XK40 Tundra?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Yes, this is a direct fit for the 2000-2002 Toyota Tundra equipped with the 4.7L 2UZ-FE V8 engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this catalytic converter legal for sale in California?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e No, this unit is EPA Federal compliant and is not legal for sale, installation, or use in California or CARB-restricted states.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Toyota Truck Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst-generation Tundras are renowned for workhorse reliability, but maintaining hauling power and heavy towing capacity requires an uninhibited exhaust system.
