Might add a little extra Grrr otherwise it will add a little BHP. I always bought OZZIE downpipes myself, well made bit of kit.
Have you dressed your engine at all ? and I don't mean in frillies :Chair:

What Rev engine have you got ? This is the pipe that your dump valve would be attached too. Sits right over your heatshield:biggrin:
