    You can try mate, although, as start & stripes discovered, signal is very hit & miss where I work. :confused:

    links and dimensions ? who do you think I am ?....can't you just hammer some stainless around a bottle or 2 or something and then stick it on the end of a drain pipe ?

    /edit Sorry...erm 2 round bits about milk bottle size, but slightly longer and a bendy Y pipe about an arms length long :)

Made the slashcut outta 3" polished stainless tube, 13" long. added a 10" length of 38mm perforated tube and another washer to the end. Just wedged it all together to see what it looked and sounded like. Whadya reckon?

    Looks & sounds ok, guess it'll depend how it runs. The fuelling need tuning? Just been looking at a non cat Akra with removable baffle & link pipe for the 690. £1200 with £100 discount.
