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.
