Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the pipe diameter before installation and confirm the connection style matches the existing exhaust joint. Clean the mating surfaces before clamping to help the band seat evenly, and tighten the hex nut gradually so the clamp compresses uniformly around the joint. For best results, match the clamp location to the listed fitment position, such as resonator assembly to muffler assembly or front resonator assembly to rear resonator assembly.
