My mate needs some pipework to make his exhaust, who is best to buy from?
Need about 5ft of straight & 5 90 degree bends?
3" internal diameter, not sure what the minimum wall thickness should be?
Ideas guys?
Pref quick delivery, ie, before this weekend if possible?
cheers.

Thats what he has asked for, dont think he will use them all, but can cut a couple down & use for short bends, if you get me?

You can make smaller angles out of it, by cutting diagonal.
Hard to describe, but i know what he means, and probs cheaper to buy 5 of these & being able to do it, rather than faffing about & measuring angles & ordering individual pipes.
Its just a stop gap for now.

Had a look on ebay, only 3" stuff i can find (1m length, straight) is about 23quid, then 10quid postage. just wondered if there was anywhere cheaper?
The Jetex stuff is a good find, but isnt cheap, 33quid for the same as above, not sure on postage though.

Why not just use the standard system while you run it in? Or better still buy the full bore sportex 2.25" system for £130 on ebay and just make up a link pipe..
Will take hours to make up a system without a pipe bender and cost a small fortune.
