hot, allow vehicle to cool for at least 1 hour. Always wear eye protection when working under any vehicle.
Note: It is our recommendation that you use a hoist or hydraulic lift to facilitate the installation of your new Borla Performance Rear Section Exhaust

Taking all under car safety precautions, lift the vehicle using a hoist or hydraulic lift. Once this has been done, you may begin the removal of your old ex-
haust system from your vehicle.

the previous page to assure that you have all the parts necessary for the installation of your new Borla Performance Rear Section Exhaust System.
Original Exhaust System Removal

bricant to be applied liberally to all exhaust fasteners and al-
lowing a significant period of time for the chemical to lubricate
the threads before attempting to disassemble.
1. Lubricate all the hangers and rubber isolators. Place all
hardware to the side for installation of your new Borla ex-
haust.
2. Remove (2) muffler flange bolts. Keep hardware for instal-
lation of your new Borla exhaust. (figure 1).
3. Slide and remove rubber isolators from hangars and remove
rear muffler (figure 2).
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.
