    Hi Kaye,

    Peter from Germany is producing down pipes from stainless steel.
    It is for a 2-in-2 exhaust layout without connection pipe.
    Unpolished for 270,- Euros,
    polished around 450,- Euros.

    I expect he has some in stock or can produce them within a few weeks.

    Cheers, Michael

    Pic shows the unpolished version.
    I have marked the approx. 15° upswept end of the downpipe, which is welded to it. That makes it easy to fit just the silencers you like.

    Now that will be interesting Yorkshire Kaye.

    Many have tried and most have failed to produce decent downpipes. From what you have achieved so far with the 2 twins you have done I am optimistic you will see this through.

    Good Luck and keep us updated
