Then head down to ur local exhaust supplier and say u need some mild steel pipe with internal diameter of what u jus measured.

Most places will sell it in lengths, so then jus cut off what u need and put some slits in it each end, cut out yer centre silencer, slip this bit over and clamp er up at each end.

Or weld it for a better and more permenant fit :thumbs:


Cheers mate... Will ring kwik fit // national now + see what they have to say for themselves...

Need proper exhaust pipe.
Scaffold pole is too thick, and usually galvanised, which is very hazardous to weld/grind.

Go to b&q for what??

You'll have to remove it and measure it to find the bore, it depends what you asked for at powerflow.
