Request: Install Manual for Mspeed Exhaust and B&B Midpipe
 
Does anyone have a link to the orginally posted pdf install manuals for the Mspeed exhaust. Previous links to finishline dont work. Bought it yesterday, only got the first page. I read Mazdamaniacs diy, but want to read the real manual if possible.

Also can someone post a manual for the B&B Midpipe, if there is one. Thanks.

not going to lie, once you get under there, it is self explanatory. if you have half a brain you can figure it out.

Yeah its 4 bolts its really straight forward

cheeto 04-26-2008 09:11 PM

yea, the hardest part would be getting the exhaust hangers out of the rubber mounts

most exhaust midpipes and sytems dont come with manuals. but it u know cars its like a 15. 20 min job

it's a few rubber hangers. there's also going to be 5 bolts total to deal with. Just put the car on jack stands and have at it.

prospectjtaz 04-26-2008 09:41 PM

ya figured that much, just imagining how much of a bi*** its gonna be to let the oem drop after getting off the hangers.

sauceyI986 04-26-2008 09:44 PM

for rubber hanger get some oil and put on them in the inside it makes them easier to slide on and off

let wd40 soak on there for a few minutes. Spray the crap out of them. They'll pop right off if you use enough.

Like everyone said you can never use too much wd40 when dealing with those pesky hangers!

TheGreatLouisianaRoadkill 04-27-2008 09:35 AM

those hangers are a bit rough, so spray spray spray. other than that you shouldnt have any problems. i did notice when i changed my cat. the bolts from the exhaust manifold to the cat, where a bit of a pita to take off. just take your time and you will do fine.

Hangers can be a pain. Unless you have a pair of these. :)

you are welcome! It is really easy, I did it with a friend a few months ago. neither of us are mechanics and it is really intuitive. I found the directions were really helpful in visualizing the process before jacking up the car. Good luck with the install! :lol:
