INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR CATBACK EXHAUST FOR

09+ CADILLAC CTSV SEDAN, WAGON AND COUPE

Thanks for purchasing A Stainless Works Catback Exhaust for your 09+ Cadillac CTSV.

We have gone to great pains to make sure that our exhaust systems fit and sound great.

Please follow these steps to ensure that your installation goes as planned.

1. Stainless Works recommends the use of Hi-Temp RTV sensor safe silicon gasket

maker as an option to or in conjunction with the use of factory gaskets. The

recommended Oxygen Sensor Safe RTV is either Valco All-in-One Aluminum or

Permatex Copper P/N 101BR available at NAPA, Autozone and other retailers.

2. Disconnect the battery before starting work on the exhaust system for your

vehicle. Reconnect the battery when the job is completed.

3. Your exhaust system can be installed by a weekend warrior but the use of a lift is

recommended for ease of installation. If using a jack, the vehicle must be placed

on a level hard surface and jack stands are required for safety reasons.

4. You will assemble the components together as specified below, but only snug the

clamps as you move along from front to back. When placing the X-pipe into

position, make certain that you push it fully forward and level it in with the

vehicle. After aligning all the components in the vehicle, you will tighten all the

clamps working from front to back of the vehicle.

5. Raise and support the vehicle.

6. Disconnect battery.

7. Remove (2) 8 mm bolts in cross brace that runs under exhaust. Note that this

cross brace will not be reused during installation of the 3” system.

8. Remove (4) 10 mm nuts (2 per side) from factory connection point behind

catalytic converters.

9. Remove exhaust from rubber grommets.

10. Remove exhaust.

11. Install lead pipes to factory connection point using (4) 10 mm nuts removed

earlier.
