you know that metal stuff that the boys use for a "RamPipe" (stupied name , cos it is not a ram pipe)

well a local shop sells thats but in the same large size, you know its like made of alluminium like what you get your chinese in ...

well i was thinking that would make a good alternative and its very cheap

The metal stuff does ware through and get crushed too as I've found out

has any tried the stuff the MiniSpeed do?
Is it the same as Avonbars?

What am i asking for if i go to halfrauds?

rover still stock original pipe,?38.00,

minispeeds is ok but the same as avonbar really, just a wire bound cloth hose in silver to reflect the heat!

Im using silicon and stainless exhaust pipe, much more solid, ill be making kits as soon as i figure out the bits i need.

Like these?

V small pix, cant really see em.

what diameter is the pipe? whats it called at halfrauds

yeah possibly dave, or just ones that have the filter sat at the back near the wiper motor, they would be dead simple to knock up.

If we could find the best shape i may be able to get them bent up rather than welded at work. We've got some CNC pipe benders, havent seen them in action but they are supposed to be very impressive!
