Step 1:(Carefully read all instructions before
installation) Begin removal of your OEM exhaust
system by loosening the OEM clamp behind the
catalytic converter. Remove all welded hangers
from the rubber insulators. The exhaust can now
be removed. Retain all fasteners and insulators as
they will be needed to mount your new
MAGNAFLOW performance exhaust system.
Step 2: Install your new system by first mounting
the Resonator Assembly to the catalytic converter
outlet using the OEM clamp. There is an OEM
hanger installed on your vehicle that isn't used for
the stock exhaust system, use the supplied rubber
insulator to locate the welded hanger on the new
muffler assembly. Next slip the Muffler Assembly
onto the Resonator Assembly and loosely secure
using the supplied 2.50" clamp and fitting the
hanger into the insulators.
Step 2: 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 3: 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 40ft-lbs).. Inspect all
fasteners after 25-50 miles of operation and
retighten if necessary
