It is normal for stainless steel to discolor slightly. To ensure a quality, lasting finish, thoroughly wipe down the entire Billy Boat Performance Exhaust prior to starting. Reconnect the battery negative terminal and start the vehicle. Listen for exhaust leaks and ensure there is no contact between the Billy Boat Performance Exhaust system and any component of the vehicle. After driving the vehicle and getting the system hot, go back and re-tighten all bolts, especially at the muffler section. Note: If you are using the anti wheel hop kit you will need to install ½” spacers in order to provide clearance for exhaust system.
