Standard Exhaust Cutting

After getting the rand on looking at Double D's pipe() all weekend i was wondering... Is it possible to shorten the standard can and remove the inside to it also?

Yep but you need a good welder, why though slip ons are cheap enough.

You would have noticed Lissa and Petes SV has a very short stubby can on, PM them and ask about it. When i heard it i was impressed by it.

also why modify the original you may require it for the MOT and its eaiser to take off a slip on aftermarket and replace than it would be with replacing the whole system. Which would be the case if you modified the standard exhaust.

Not my MOT! My exhaust is legal and my original is just wasting away in the garage at the mo...Just and idea. Dont see why it would need welding, just rivvetting again

Plowsie, the original is a welded up. There are no rivets.

Don't you worry, we heard.... I mean felt it going by

I thought a spitfire was trying to land next to me when Pete first overtook me.

Seems a lot of hassle Plowsie. It's not even a nice looking can. Buy a stubby

Sorry Double D. Should have put me landing lights on to warn ya.

That might just work if you left about 1cm of can with the end cap then after you have chopped down the can you could wedge the end cap back on with some sealant then drill and rivvet it in place. Jobs done.

It would still look pants though.
