A Toyota truck catalytic converter uses a sophisticated mesh of precious metals to convert harmful exhaust pollutants into less environmentally damaging compounds. The worst poisons are carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrous oxide, and various hydrocarbons. The catalytic converter contains a mesh of precious metals that allow the reaction to take place.

The metals are primarily from the platinum group, which is why catalytic converters tend to be the most expensive components of the exhaust system. The more of the precious metals the cat contains, the more efficiently it works. However, this increase in performance comes with an increase in cost.

Beyond increasing the amount of metals in a cat, there are other ways to increase its performance. So-called “high flow” catalytic converters have larger intake and outlet ports that allow the exhaust gasses to flow through at a higher volume and reduced pressure, which decreases the amount of energy required by the engine to push the gasses through the exhaust system. Any Toyota truck catalytic converter can be called high flow if the intake or outlet ports are larger than those found on the OEM cat. A more efficient catalytic converter takes less energy to work, which effectively increases the amount of engine power available to drive the vehicle forward, which translates in an increase in at-the-wheel horsepower.
