MagnaFlow For the car
Step 1:( Carefully read all instructions before
installation) Start the removal process of the OEM
exhaust system. First loosen the clamp on the inlet
pipe behind the catalytic converter flex. Working
front to rear carefully remove all hangers from the
rubber isolators and remove the system. Retain
all mounting hardware as it will be used to mount
your new MAGNAFLOW Performance Exhaust
System.
Step 2: Begin the installation of your new exhaust
system by first laying out all components to check
content and orientation. Start by slipping the inlet
of the Muffler Sub Assembly over the outlet of the
catalytic converter flex using the supplied 2.50"
clamp. Next slip the Mid Pipe Assembly over the
Muffler Sub Assembly outlet pipe. Loosely secure
using the supplied clamps and OEM rubber
isolators. Mount the Muffler Tail Pipe Assembly to
the Mid Pipe 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 tighten if necessary.

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.
