MagnaFlow HONDA CR-Z Stainless Cat-Back System PERFORMANCE EXHAUST - Manual

Step 1: (Carefully read all instructions
before installation)
Begin removal of the OEM
exhaust system by unbolting the three hole flange
from the Catalytic Converter located at the front of
the vehicle and the two hole flange located at the
rear muffler junction. Remove the hangers from the
OEM isolators and remove the exhaust system. Be
careful not to damage the OEM rubber isolators and
save the OEM fasteners as they will be re-used to
mount the new system.
Step 2 : Using the OEM fasteners install the new
system by bolting up the Inlet Resonator Assembly
to the Catalytic Converter and by fitting the welded
hanger into the OEM rubber isolator. Use the
supplied 1.75" U-Bolt assembly to loosely fasten the
Mid-Pipe Assembly to the Resonator Assembly and
fit the welded hangers into the OEM rubber isolators.
Install the Muffler Assembly in the same 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 25-30ft-lbs). Inspect all
fasteners after 25-50 miles of operation and
retighten if necessary.
