Mark_Solesbury:
Cassillis you got any pics of yours, or a video so i can compare notes!
Cassillis:
Your wish is my command :D
63mm Pipe from my local motor factors in 2m lengths £25. Welding and grinding shaping and swearing, all free :grin:
D4x4 Finisher £30 delivered next day, bobs your uncle :lol:
Mark_Solesbury:
see ive only made a mid section, and bought a proper rear section from a pattern part supplier.
How did you bend yours?
I think the mid section i made needs to be slightly longer though - the rear section does not sit correctly and sticks out about an inch to far...

I didn't have access to a pipe bender so I kept all the old bits of exhaust as it slowly fell apart. There's enough bends and angles in the original plus the extra 2m of straight section to make this. Trial and error to cut, grind and shape, tack it till it's right, then weld the sucker!
Les Henson:
The rear silencer is just a resonator. Some people have said that the noise is too much a higher revs, so just have the resonator fitted .
