For Git-Kit installation, proceed to

Step 2.

1.

Replace the factory air filter

element with the Banks Ram-Air™

filter.

2.

Raise the vehicle on a hoist or

safety stands to provide access to

the exhaust system. Loosen the

clamp at the front of the muffler

and pry the muffler and tailpipe

hanger pins from the rubber hangers.

Remove the muffler and tailpipe from

the vehicle. Cutting the tailpipe may

ease the process of removal.
For Git-Kit installation, proceed to

Step 25.

3.

Remove the remaining portion of

the exhaust system from the vehicle.

Retain the V-band clamp for reuse.
WARNING: At the outlet of each

exhaust manifold, locate the short

section of tubing that feeds exhaust

up to the turbocharger. Check these

tubes to ensure that they are not

loose, as we have found several

new vehicles with exhaust leaks

in this area. Correct this condition

now or soon after installation of

the PowerPack components to

eliminate dangerous exhaust leaks

and poor turbocharger performance.

4.

Locate the 7” x 24” blanket

heatshield provided. Form the heat

shield to the shape of the Banks

Monster T.O.P. (turbine outlet pipe)

in the vertical section of the pipe.

Secure the heat shield to the T.O.P.

using the wire ties provided (see

Figure 1).
For Stinger installation, proceed to

Step 18.
