Note: With a used vehicle, we suggest a penetrating spray lubricant to be applied liberally to all exhaust fasteners and allowing a significant period of time for the chemical to lubricate the threads before attempting to disassemble. 1. The OE exhaust cannot be removed without cutting the pipe above the rear-axel area. Cut pipe as indicated using a metal-cutting blade (Figure 1). Support the muffler as needed while cutting. 2. Loosen the (2) clamp bolts as shown (13mm) and slide clamp towards front of vehicle. (Figure.2) 3. Using a muffler stand or an additional person to hold the muffler assem- bly up into position, slide the (2) hangars out of the rubber isolators and remove the front muffler assembly. Keep the hardware for use during the installation of your new exhaust system. (Figure 3) 4. Slide the (2) hangars out of the rubber isolators and remove the rear muf- fler assembly. Warning: Use extreme caution during installation. Torque all fasteners according to manufacturer’s torque values and tightening sequence. DO NOT use air impact tools to tighten fasteners on Borla Performance Exhaust Systems. Use of such tools may result in bent flanges or gasket contact areas leading to exhaust leaks.
