- downpipe with catalytic converter;

Figure 3.116. Downpipe connection to the rear of the system
The entire length of the system is suspended on rubber brackets. The downpipe is connected to the rear by a conical O-ring tightened with a clamp (Figure 3.116).
Attention:
- When the vehicle is in motion, the catalytic converter heats up to a high temperature. Do not park your vehicle where there are combustible materials.
- Do not work on the exhaust system until it has cooled down.
- The seal between the exhaust manifold and the converter must be perfect.
- All exhaust system gaskets are single use only.
- When removing/installing the converter, do not allow it to be mechanically damaged.
