NOTE: When you first start your vehicle after the installation of your new Borla Performance Exhaust
System, there may be some smoke and fumes coming from the system. This is a protective oil based coat-
ing used in the manufacturing of mandrel bent performance exhaust tubing. This is not a problem and
will disappear within a very short period of time after the exhaust has reached normal operating temper-
atures.
WARNING: Use extreme caution during installation. Torque all fasteners according to manufactur-
er’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.
