Removal of Stock System:
1. Apply a penetrating lubricant liberally to all exhaust fasteners, hangers and
rubber insulators.
2. Loosen the nut on the band clamp located behind the catalytic converter
using a 15mm wrench or socket. Refer to Figure 1.
3. Remove the muffler and tail pipe from the OEM rubber hangers. To
remove the system in one piece, on 03-04 models, the bottom shock bolt of
the passenger side shock must be removed. This is not required on 05 or
06 models. Separate the stock exhaust at the slip joint located behind the
catalytic converter and remove the muffler and tail pipe from under the
truck. Re-install the bottom shock bolt.
4. Remove the catalytic converter by removing the two nuts holding the inlet
flange together using a 15mm wrench or socket. Retain the nuts for the re-
installation of the catalytic converter. Refer to Figure 2.
5. Remove the down pipe from the turbo by removing the band clamp using
an 11mm socket. Retain the band clamp for the installation of the new
down pipe. Refer to Figure 3. Cut the down pipe in front of the
transmission cross member to remove.(Note: The stock down pipe can be
removed in one piece by removing the transmission cross member. MBRP
Inc. recommends that this procedure only be done by qualified, trained
professionals using tools and equipment designed to safely carry out this
process.)
Installation of MBRP Inc. Performance Exhaust:
1. Install the Down Pipe in the same position as the stock down pipe and
attach the flared end to the turbo using the stock band clamp. Do not fully
tighten until all components are in place. See Figure 4.
2. Attach the Mid Pipe to the Down Pipe using the 3 ½" Clamp to secure
using the slip joint. See Figure 5.
