Catalytic converter and pipe assembly

摘要

A catalytic converter and pipe assembly having a catalytic converter which includes a housing and an attached housing end. The housing end has a substantially flat surface with an opening. Mounted to the substantially flat surface is a pipe with a diameter having first and second ends wherein exhaust gas flows through the opening into the pipe. The first end of the pipe has an irregular ovoid shape and a plane that is at an acute angle to the outer surface of the pipe in the direction of exhaust flow. The catalytic converter and pipe assembly is capable of achieving a change of exhaust flow direction in a space that is slightly larger than the diameter of the pipe.
