Step 1:(Carefully read all instructions before
installation) Remove the OEM exhaust system by
unbolting the inlet flange from the outlet flange at
the catalytic converter. Working with a front to
rear method loosen or remove all clamps and
hardware. Disengage all welded hangers from the
rubber insulators. The OEM system may now be
removed. Retain all mounting hardware as it will
be needed to install your new MAGNAFLOW
exhaust system.

Step 2: Begin installing your new system by
loosely bolting the four bolt flange of the Inlet Pipe
Assy to the catalytic converter using the existing
hardware and the supplied gasket. Next, slip the
inlets of the Muffler Assemblies over the Inlet Pipe
Assy outlets and loosely secure using the supplied
clamps. Repeat this process with the remaining
components and engage the welded hangers to
the rubber insulators. Mount the two Hanger
Brackets at the Muffler locations using the existing
holes is the vehicle sub frame. Secure with the
supplied hardware. Locate the welded hangers to
the supplied rubber insulators.

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.
