      *b Concave
      *c Protruding Part

      Check that the concave area of the baffle is aligned with the protruding part on the bottom of the tail exhaust pipe assembly as shown in the illustration.

  2. INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY


    1. A01ET9C

      Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the compression springs.

      Minimum 40.5 mm (1.60 in.)

      Tech Tips

      If the free length is less than minimum, replace the compression spring.

    2. Fully insert a new gasket to the exhaust manifold converter sub-assembly.

      *1 Exhaust Manifold Converter Sub-assembly
      *2 Gasket
      *3 Wooden Block

      Using a plastic hammer and wooden block, tap in the new gasket until its surface is flush with the exhaust manifold converter sub-assembly.

      Note


      • Be careful with the installation direction of the gasket.

      • Do not reuse the gasket.

      • Do not damage the gasket.

      • Do not push in the gasket by using the exhaust pipe when connecting it.

    4. Install the front exhaust pipe assembly with the 2 bolts and 2 compression springs.

      Torque:
      43 N*m  { 438 kgf*cm, 32 ft.*lbf }

    5. Connect the front exhaust pipe assembly to the exhaust pipe support.

  3. INSTALL CENTER EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY


    1. Install a new gasket to the front exhaust pipe assembly.

    2. Connect the center exhaust pipe assembly to the exhaust pipe support.

    3. Install the center exhaust pipe assembly with the 2 nuts.

      Torque:
      43 N*m  { 438 kgf*cm, 32 ft.*lbf }

  4. INSTALL TAIL EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY


    1. A01ET9C

      Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the compression springs.

      Minimum 38.5 mm (1.52 in.)

      Tech Tips

      If the free length is less than minimum, replace the compression spring.

    2. Fully insert a new gasket to the center exhaust pipe assembly.

      Using a plastic hammer and wooden block, tap in the new gasket until its surface is flush with the center exhaust pipe assembly.

      Note


      • Be careful with the installation direction of the gasket.

      • Do not reuse the gasket.

      • Do not damage the gasket.

      • Do not push in the gasket by using the exhaust pipe when connecting it.

    4. Connect the tail exhaust pipe assembly to the 3 exhaust pipe supports.

    5. Install the tail exhaust pipe assembly with the 2 bolts and 2 compression springs.

      Torque:
      43 N*m  { 438 kgf*cm, 32 ft.*lbf }
