Question about Trubendz single exhaust

Ok - I have just now got a new trubendz single exhaust with magnaflow. So I have two questions:

1. Should I use a high temp silicone or smth like that when I fit tubes into each other?
2. What is the torque for these O-rings bolts?

Nothing like that is needed... just clamp them down really tight after it is lined up perfect.


2. What is the torque for these O-rings bolts?
Not sure, but just make sure everything is seated properly, and tighten then down so that nothing can loosen up.

Re: Question about Trubendz single exhaust

Ok, today I tried to install it and found out that if I fit all the tubes into each other I can't match into control points (i.e. hang places) - seems like some tubes should be fitted MUCH deeper then I can insert 'em into each other.

So - has anybody cut extra length from tubes or they SHOULD fit without any additional cut&test job? Yes - I can cut the tubes - but I prefer to ask BEFORE cutting...

Mine fit perfectly with no cutting, I tightened the clamps with an impact.
