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.

Step 1:(Carefully read all instructions before
installation) Remove the OEM exhaust system by
loosening the OEM clamp on the catalytic
converter outlet extension pipe. You may need to
cut the OEM system above the support cross
member to aid removal. Working front to rear
remove all welded hangers from the rubber
isolators. Be sure to retain all mounting hardware
as it will be needed to install your new
MAGNAFLOW performance exhaust system.
Step 2: To install your new system insert the inlet
end of the Resonator Assembly into the outlet of
the catalytic converter extention pipe. Loosely
secure using the OEM clamp. Next slip the inlet
pipe of the Mid Muffler Assembly over the outlet
pipe of the resonator assembly and loosely secure
using the supplied clamp. Locate all welded
hangers to the rubber isolators. Loosely secure
the Rear Muffler Assembly in a similar fashion.
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 40ft-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.
