Important Information - Safety
WARNING: Before starting the installation of any ATV, UTV, or SXS aftermarket parts, it is important to prioritize safety. Make sure you are using suitable protective gear, this includes but is not limited to safety goggles, gloves and protective clothing.
Ensure your vehicle is on flat, stable ground. Installing parts on uneven or unstable surfaces can potentially lead to injury or damage to the vehicle. The vehicle should be turned off and cooled down before proceeding with the installation. Attempting to install parts on a running or hot vehicle can result in burns or other serious injuries.
After completing installation, it is important to inspect and check the tightness of any and all nuts, screws, and bolts. Failure to properly secure these fasteners can lead to component failure or detachment during riding, posing significant safety risks to both the rider and bystanders. The vehicle should be warmed up and subsequently cooled down to account for any thermal expansion or contraction effects that may affect the tightness of the fasteners.
It is crucial to inspect and tighten screws and bolts as necessary after initial rides, as vibrations and stresses during operation can cause fasteners to loosen over time.
It is important to pay close attention to the condition of the exhaust system and undertake the necessary measures to maintain optimal performance. Failure to properly maintain the exhaust system can result in reduced engine performance and potential safety hazards. Remember to repack exhausts as necessary to ensure efficient exhaust flow and minimize any potential restrictions that could adversely affect performance.
Prior to starting the installation process, it is important to thoroughly read all provided instructions to familiarize yourself with the installation procedures and any specific requirements or precautions. Failure to follow the instructions could result in improper installation or component failure.
Please check your local laws and regulations governing the use of aftermarket parts on your vehicle. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in legal repercussions, fines, or other penalties. Therefore, it is important to research and understand the applicable laws and regulations before installing aftermarket parts on your vehicle. Always ensure that any modifications made to your vehicle comply with local regulations.

Important Information - Fuel Tuning
The use of an aftermarket performance exhaust requires a crucial step - EFI tuning. RJWC Powersports exhaust systems must be accompanied by a proper re-flashing or use of an EFI Tuner to prevent the engine from running lean, which can result in engine damage. To guarantee a correct air to fuel mixture, make sure to adhere to the manufacturer’s recommended settings for your fuel tuner.
Neglecting to properly tune the engine using an EFI tuner when using an RJWC Powersports exhaust will void the exhaust warranty. Any problems arising from the engine not running correctly, such as a lean condition or incorrect air/fuel ratio, will not be considered a valid warranty claim.
Please note that if your vehicle differs from the base model, additional modifications such as a different tune, turndown pipe, or other adjustments may be necessary to achieve a proper fit and optimal performance. All RJWC Powersports exhausts are designed and tested on stock-equipped vehicles.
Spark Arrestor & Shim Ring Installation
The Spark Arrestor and Shim Ring are not pre-installed, they can be found in the Hardware Kit.
To install the Spark Arrestor, start by removing the End Tip. Unscrew the four M6x20 Cylinder Screws in the End Tip to remove it.
There is a small circular groove in the End Cap, in this groove you need to place the Shim Ring first, then the Spark Arrestor.
With the Shim Ring and Spark Arrestor in place, reinstall the End Tip by screwing back in the M6x20 Cylinder Screws.
Removing the Stock Exhaust
Remove the factory muffler, loosen the bolt holding the factory exhaust clamp in place.
Remove the upper and lower bracket bolt on the factory muffler, see picture.
Installing the APX Exhaust
Start with installing the 3x Clamps, the bottom clamp should be smooth and the top clamp should have the threaded holes. Use the above image and secure these loosely in place with the 8x M5x16 Cylinder Screws and 8x M5 A2 Washers.
They should be kept loose as we may need to adjust their positioning in a future step.
Secure the stacked pipe to the APX cans. Place 1x Gasket G2 between the top flange and muffler can. Secure it in place with 5x Hex Flange Screws M6x20.
Do the same for the bottom can, placing the 1x G2 Gasket between the can and the pipe flange. Before securing it in place with the 5x Hex Flange Screws, place the 1x Powdercoated Bottom Bracket on top of the flange.
Follow the above image for how the bracket should be installed.
Install the 1x Powdercoated Top Bracket with 2x M8x20 Cylinder Screws and 2x 8.4 Washers as shown in the above image.
We recommend having a second set of hands to help with the mounting of the exhaust in the next three steps.
Place 1x 8.4x35 Washer and 1x Rubber Bushing onto 1x M8x40 Hexagon Screw.
Holding the exhaust in lace, thread this through the Powdercoated Top Bracket, and add one more rubber bushing to sandwich the bracket between the two bushings.
Use 1x M8 Nut with Collar to secure to frame, tighten enough so that the rubber bushings are squeezed to about 50% of their original size.
Line up the APX pipe and exhaust pipe and use 1x 45-50mm Clamp to secure the pipes together. Tighten it securely.
Secure the Powdercoated Bottom Bracket in the same way the top bracket was installed.
Place 1x 8.4x35mm Stainless Washer and 1x Rubber Bushing onto 1x M8x40 Hexagon Screw.
Thread this through the Powder Coated Bottom Bracket, and add one more rubber bushing to sandwich the bracket between the two bushings.
Use 1x M8 Nut with Collar to secure to frame.
Keeping the screws slightly loose on the muffler clamps and the exhaust clamps will allow you slightly adjust the fitment of the exhaust when mounting it to the frame with the frame brackets, and lining up the pipe.
When the exhaust is mounted you need to tighten all screws in place and re-connect the O2 Sensor. You should start your vehicle, allow the exhaust to get warm and shut the machine down to cool. When it is cool, double check all screws and bolts and retighten them.
After your first ride, double check all screws and bolts and retighten.
You have now completed the installation of the Can-Am Outlander G2 Dual Stacked APX.
