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.

measure the external diameter of ur centre pipe either side of the centre silencer, should be the same either side tho lol make sure u brush off any shite or rust 1st

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

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