connecting a straight pip from headers , bend over rear axle and welded onto the muffler?
1980 GS


Thanks .

 

pipe*

 

If you're talking about having a local pipe bender do it, it shouldn't cost that much. I had a custom pipe, 1 high flow cat and a turbo muffler put on my 84 GS for $150 when I got the stock crap removed. It even passed NJ inpsection.

 

why would you want to have it welded to the muffler.. flang it.

make sure and get mandrel bends as well.

 

I had the pipe work done for $75...I brought the parts...

 

My complete exhasut including the muffler in 3" was $250

 

kewl thanks peepo

 

go under the axel if your getting a shop to do it and i would recommend sydney tire here in nanaimo

 

ive seen a few posts regarding this, but no pics
i dont like that idea..... but i could be wrong

 

How much ground clearance is there with the pipe under the axle?

 

I had my pipe work done for $75. I drove to the shop open header,and he installed all pipes and new hangers,to my muffler.

 

I think going under the axle is a bad idea. Sounds like a "welded shortcut". Go over and use flanges. IMHO

 

Haha.... Paul (Vohaul) did that with his 85 GSL when he first got it.... cut the stock exhaust off, gave it to me, and put his header on.... drove to the shop, got the bottle and muffler welded on, and called it a day

 

well i just got it done today , took em an hour and half, 120$ cdn no tax (Good ol cash), i drove it there with open headers.... loud... no backpreasure sux tho...
