Over extended mileage, the factory rear ceramic brick experiences washcoat thermal sintering, cell degradation, and substrate fracturing under heavy payload stress.

Optimized precious metal washcoat loading promotes rapid light-off efficiency, converting harmful HC, CO, and NOx gases into inert emissions without choking exhaust velocity. Factory-calibrated, laser-cut mounting flanges and direct-match slip-joints mate directly to OEM intermediate pipe locations, eliminating custom welding while restoring factory emissions balance and reducing backpressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x: auto; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px; min-width: 300px;\"\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;\"\u003e2008-2016 Ford E-Series\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;\"\u003eModular 5.4L V8 \u0026amp; 6.8L V10 \/ VN Platform\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;\"\u003e255-305 hp \/ 350-420 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;\"\u003e30809, 646321\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2008-2016 Ford E-350 Super Duty 5.4L V8 (Rear Position)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2008-2016 Ford E-350 Super Duty 6.8L V10 (Rear Position)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2008-2016 Ford E-450 Super Duty 5.4L V8 (Rear Position)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2008-2016 Ford E-450 Super Duty 6.8L V10 (Rear Position)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNote: Does not fit E-150 or E-250 applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes this fit the VN Platform E-Series?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, this is a direct fit for the 2008-2016 Ford E-Series equipped with the Modular 5.4L V8 and 6.8L V10 engines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs this catalytic converter CARB-compliant for California emissions?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, this unit is EPA-compliant (46-state legal) and cannot be legally sold, shipped, or installed in CA, NY, CO, or ME.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Ford Commercial Caliber\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt to handle severe commercial fleet duty cycles, this assembly provides the high-heat structural endurance and steady backpressure mitigation demanded by heavy chassis-cab and cutaway hauling applications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67537679384824,"sku":"DS-EI5Q0D8G3","price":127.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/catalytic-converter-for-ford-e-series-2008-2016-5-4l-6-8l-rear-1.jpg?v=1790613892","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/fr\/products\/catalytic-converter-for-ford-e-series-2008-2016-5-4l-6-8l-rear","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
