MagnaFlow DODGE VIPER Stainless Cat-Back System PERFORMANCE EXHAUST - Manual

Step 1: To remove the OEM exhaust system
begin by unbolting the tip assemblies.
Disengage all welded hangers from the rubber
isolators. Working rear to front unbolt and
remove the exhaust system to the catalytic
onverter outlet pipes. Be sure to retain all
mounting hardware and rubber isolators as they
will be used to install your new MAGNAFLOW
performance exhaust system.
Step 2: Begin installation of your new exhaust
system by first attaching the inlets of both
muffler sub assemblies to the outlets of the
catalytic converter pipes. Secure using the
supplied 2.5" clamps. Working front to rear
install the mid pipes, mid pipe assembly and tail
pipe assemblies in the same fashion using the
supplied 3" clamps. Locate all welded
hangers to the rubber isolators.
Step 3: With all components mounted loosely,
adjust the system for overall aesthetics and
clearance of frame & bodywork. (MAGNAFLOW
recommends at least 1/2" of clearance between
the exhaust system and any body panels to
prevent heat-related body damage or fire.)
Step 4: Once a final position has been chosen
for the new system, evenly tighten all fasteners
from front to rear. The supplied band clamps
must be VERY tight to properly align the pipes
and prevent leaks (Approximately 65ft-lbs).
U-bolt clamps should be tightened to
approximately 30-35ft-lbs. Inspect all fasteners
after 25-50 miles of operation and retighten if
necessary.

Warning: When working on, under, or around
any vehicle exercise caution. Please allow the
vehicle's exhaust system to cool before removal,
as exhaust system temperatures may cause
severe burns. If working without a lift, always
consult vehicle manual for correct lifting
specifications. Always wear safety glasses and
ensure a safe work area. Serious injury or death
could occur if safety measures are not followed.
