1.
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 (spray
lubricant will ease hanger removal).
remove the muffler and tailpipe from
the vehicle. Cutting the tailpipe may
ease the process of removal.
2.
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 Monster
exhaust components to eliminate
dangerous exhaust leaks and
poor turbocharger performance.
If a Banks Power Elbow is being
installed, follow steps 3-10
below. Otherwise, skip to step
11.
3.
on the passenger side of the
vehicle, temporarily remove the
manifold absolute pressure (Map)
sensor (Figure 1) from its mounting
location by removing the three nuts
from the mounting studs. save the
nuts for reinstallation later. set the
Map sensor out of the way by resting
it in the intake valley of the engine.
4.
remove both driver- and
passenger-side boost tubes and
the intake plenum from the vehicle
to allow access to the rear of the
turbocharger.
5.
Disengage the exhaust
backpressure control rod by sliding
the cover on the end of the rod back
toward the turbocharger and pulling
the rod downward. this rod is below
the turbine housing; it is not the
wastegate actuator rod that runs
across the top of the turbocharger.
6.
locate the engine lifting hook
at the rear of the engine on the
passenger side, bolted to the cylinder
head. remove the lifting hook.
this will allow clearance for the
installation of the power elbow. it is
not necessary to re-install the hook.
