MagnaFlow AUDI A6 QUATTRO Stainless Cat-Back System PERFORMANCE EXHAUST - Manual

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 X-Pipe Assembly
to the catalytic converter outlets using the OEM
clamps. Locate both hangers to the rubber isolators.
Next, slip the inlets of the Resonator Assemblies over
X-Pipe outlets and secure using the supplied clamps,
hanger bracket and fasteners. Slip both Muffler
Assemblies onto their respective Resonator
Assemblies and secure with the supplied 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.
