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: Begin removing your OEM exhaust system
by first loosening the clamps at the outlet of the
catalytic converters. Working front to rear detach all
hangers from the rubber isolators. Remove the
system from the vehicle.
Step 2: Install your new MAGNAFLOW system by
first attaching the inlet pipes of the inlet muffler
assembly to the catalytic converter outlets, loosely
secure with the existing OEM clamps. Locate all
hangers to the rubber isolators. Next, slip the inlet of
the Y-pipe assembly over the muffler sub assy outlet
pipe and loosely secure using the supplied 3" clamp.
Slip both tail pipe inlets over the outlet pipes of the
Y-pipe assembly. Loosely secure with the supplied
2.5" clamps. Locate the remaining hangers into 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.
