INSTALLATION

1. INSTALL EXHAUST PIPE SUPPORT






(a) Install the 5 exhaust pipe supports to the body.
2. INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY





(a) Check the free length.
(1) Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the compression spring.
Minimum length:
40.5 mm (1.594 in.)
If the free length is less than minimum, replace the compression spring.






(b) Using a wooden block and plastic-faced hammer, tap a new gasket until it is flush with the exhaust manifold.

NOTE:
- Make sure that the gasket is in the correct direction when installing.
- Do not reuse a removed gasket.
- Never push the gasket into the exhaust manifold by installing the front exhaust pipe onto the exhaust manifold.





(c) Install the front exhaust pipe with the 2 compression springs and 2 bolts.
Torque: 43 Nm (440 kgf-cm, 32 ft-lbf)
3. INSTALL CENTER EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY






(a) Install a new gasket onto the front exhaust pipe.






(b) Install the exhaust pipe center onto the 2 exhaust pipe supports.
(c) Install the 2 bolts.
Torque: 43 Nm (440 kgf-cm, 32 ft-lbf)
4. INSTALL TAILPIPE ASSEMBLY





(a) Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the compression spring.
Minimum free length:
38.5 mm (1.516 in.)
If the free length is less than the minimum, replace the compression spring.






(b) Using a wooden block and plastic-faced hammer, tap a new gasket until it is flush with the center exhaust pipe.

NOTE:
- Make sure that the gasket is in the correct direction when installing.
- Do not reuse a removed gasket.
- Never push the gasket onto the exhaust pipe center by installing the exhaust pipe tail onto the exhaust pipe center.





(c) Install the tailpipe to the 3 exhaust pipe supports.
(d) Install the 2 compression springs and 2 bolts.
Torque: 43 Nm (440 kgf-cm, 32 ft-lbf)
5. INSTALL HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR (for Bank 1 Sensor 2) Installation

6. CONNECT CABLE TO BATTERY NEGATIVE TERMINAL
7. CHECK EXHAUST GAS LEAKS
8. INSTALL FRONT FLOOR PANEL BRACE






(a) Install the front floor panel brace with the 4 bolts.
Torque: 29.6 Nm (300 kgf-cm, 22 ft-lbf)
NOTE: Make sure that the front floor panel brace is at the correct direction when installing.

9. PERFORM INITIALIZATION
(a) Perform initialization Testing and Inspection.
