Q:I have a 2020 mustang GT 5.0 premi coupe. Bought the car with missing cats does this item fit and does it take 2cats? Show Less
Richard N.
A:BEST ANSWERHi Richard, I'm pleased to assist you. No, this cat does not fit the 2020 Ford Mustang GT Premium 8 Cyl 5.0L. We currently only have the Federal emission direct fit driver-side cat compatible with the vehicle. Check the Vehicle Emission Control Information sticker, usually found underneath the hood, to see if it matches the emission control specifications. Federal emissions (46-state) stickers will simply say, "This vehicle conforms to U.S. EPA regulations," whereas California-emissions (50-state) vehicles will say, "This vehicle conforms to U.S. EPA and State of California regulations." If interested, use the link below to place an order while supplies last. Your order will come with a 30-day post-purchase price match guarantee. I hope this is helpful. Merry Christmas from CarParts.com!

P0430 Code: Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 2)In most cases, a vehicle with an inefficient catalytic converter will continue to run just fine. But if the converter is obstructed internally, it can cause poor engine performance and may even damage the engine in the long run.
P0042 Code: HO2S Heater Control Circuit Bank 1 Sensor 3Bank 1 is the side of the engine where the #1 cylinder is located. P0042 code is set when your car’s PCM determines a potential problem with the heater element circuit of the oxygen sensor.
Can You Drive Without a Catalytic Converter?Technically, yes. Older cars ran just fine before catalytic converters became commonplace in the 1970s. So, if your question is whether your car will run without one, then it most certainly will. But the other question you should be asking is—should you risk it?
Removing or disabling the catalytic converter could
P0316 Code: Engine Misfire Detected on Startup (First 1000 Revolutions)The PCM may disable the misfiring cylinder or cylinders in order to prevent further damage to the engine. Code P0316 is often listed in addition to one or more of the P0300 series codes that are associated with the misfiring cylinder/s.
P0134: O2 Sensor Circuit No Activity Detected (Bank 1, Sensor 1)The Bank 1 portion of the code refers to the side of the engine with the number one cylinder. Sensor 1 refers to the upstream O2 sensor.
How to Tell If the Catalytic Converter is CloggedA clogged catalytic converter will present symptoms, while a chemically failed cat con that’s not clogged typically just illuminates the check engine light or malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). Also, if the cat con that just fails chemically but doesn’t clog is not the light-off cat con (the cat con closest
