Exhaust System Installation
Clamp On Tip Assembly
2014-Current C7 Corvette
PN’s 14062, 14062BLK, 14063, 14063BLK
Polished & Black Quad 4.5” Pro or Poly Tips
CORSA Tip Assembly Installation:
NOTE: Apply the anti-seize lubricant (supplied) to the threads ONLY of all the clamps. Failure to follow this procedure
can cause nuts to seize on clamps and potentially destroy threads. After applying anti-seize lubricant, be sure to
thoroughly clean your hands, as lubricant will tarnish stainless steel. All clamps should be tightened using a properly
calibrated Torque Wrench. Using an air impact gun will damage the clamp and
reduce its ability to effectively seal the joint. It may also cause the joint to
separate, thereby causing damage to your exhaust system and to your vehicle.
NOTE: Align all clamps so that the center of the clamp bolt is 90 degrees from the
notch in the pipe. (See Fig. CLAMP)
1. Locate the new Corsa tip assembly, along with the two 2.75” clamps. Align both clamps on the tip inlet as shown,
with the clamp bolts to the inside and the clamp nuts facing downwards. (Fig. C (Quad Pro Tips) or Fig. D (Poly
Tip))
2. CAREFULLY insert the tip assembly into the cutout in the rear valence. Align the tip assembly inlet with both
muffler outlets before sliding it into place as shown. (Fig. E & F (Quad Pro Tips) or Fig. G & H (Poly Tip))
NOTE: Loosening the 13mm muffler tie bracket hardware, along with the 15mm clamps at the muffler inlet, will
allow additional adjustment (if needed) to install the new tip assembly. (Fig I & J)
3. Adjust the position and depth of the tip assembly until it is centered in the cutout, and has an equal amount of
reveal on each side, then tighten the clamps using a 15mm socket and 3/8” ratchet. Re-tighten the clamps at the
muffler inlet (if loosened in step 2). Starting at the front and working backwards, torque the clamps to 45ft-lb using
the torque wrench and 15mm socket, ensuring that the tips are still in the desired position. (Fig. J & A)
IMPORTANT NOTE DO NOT over-tighten the clamps on the tip assembly, as this will make future removal of the
tip assembly much more difficult. The C7 CORSA tip assemblies are designed to be interchangeable, between the
different tip designs and finishes.
4. Re-tighten the muffler tie bracket hardware (if loosened in step 2) using a 13mm wrench, along with a 13mm
socket and 3/8” ratchet. Torque to 15 Ft-Lbs. (Fig. I) Installation complete.
NOTE: During cold weather start-ups, you may experience an exhaust sound that is deeper and louder in tone
than usual. This is temporary and will diminish to normal levels once your engine has reached its normal
operating temperature.
NOTE: Immediately following the installation of your exhaust system, you may experience a trace of smoke
after initial start-up. DO NOT be alarmed. The smoke is caused by the burning of a small amount of forming oil
residue used in the manufacturing process.
