MagnaFlow MINI COUNTRYMAN Stainless Cat-Back System PERFORMANCE EXHAUST - Manual

Step 1:(Carefully read all instructions before
installation) Begin removal of your OEM exhaust
system by first cutting the inlet pipe 4.25" rearward of
the front resonator. Remove all welded hangers from
the rubber isolators. The exhaust can now be
removed. Retain all mounting hardware as it will be
needed to mount your new MAGNAFLOW
performance exhaust system.
Step 2: Install your new system by first slipping the
reduced end of the inlet pipe over the outlet pipe you
have cut rearward of the resonator. Looseley secure
using the supplied 2.25" clamp. Install the mid pipe
assembly and the muffler assembly in a similar
fashion loosely secure using the supplied 2.50"
clamps.
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). U-bolt clamps should be
tightened to approximately 30-35ft-lbs. Inspect all
fasteners after 25-50 miles of operation and retighten
if necessary.
