2017-2022 Can Am Turbo X3 Desert Storm/Dynomite Heatshields

Remove the installed V-band clamp bolt. Depending on the age of the machine, use some penetrating lubricant on the threads and MAP gas to loosen the clamp. Do not pry against the sealing surface of the turbo exhaust flange.

Inspect the turbo flange for any damage or scrapes. If there are any visible damage, repair before installing the new V-band heatshield clamp. Apply a small amount of high heat anti-seize around the turbo flange, this will help when aligning after the clamp is installed.

Slip new V-band clamp over turbo and exhaust flange. Align the clamp bolt so the nut can be started on the bolt threads. The nut included with the clamp is a onetime use part. A small amount of anti-seize is recommended on the bolt threads.

Once the V-band clamp is around the flanges, tighten the nut snug so the clamp can still be rotated.
