Exhaust selection advice

[Dr.D]

2” OD on @Paul Bryant header outlet. But he’ll make you a reducer. He sent a 2 > 1.5 reducer, coated, with mine

If you reduce the diameter does that negatively affect performance?

Oh my this amount of noodle just depends my confusion

Well. Installed Paul's complete system about a year ago and now looking at a new clutch. Way to much fun on the low end. I can not ride a twisty turns worth a #rap. Do know how to get it and keep the front wheel down while tearing up the back tire. Of course at 38,000 miles now we have to turn a wrench or two. If you want to have some fun buy the complete three into one system. The low end torque is amazing. Just ask my clutch.

Yes INDEED. Got some problems today riding to work but plenty of time and money to take care of it. I will be there come #ell or High water. Good pic of the exhaust system.

Super nice see you there.

Stainless would have been great living in Hawaii... the CES pipes rusted pretty much instantly, but, so did everything, including stainless bolts.

Considering how much work goes into properly welding stainless I do understand why Carpenter pipes aren’t welded, it would add significantly to the cost to find a welder to properly do the job.

Paul’s probably spot on regarding expected use. Track vs Street a track based design may well last a lifetime of track use, and be ruined very quickly on the street.

A lot of of stuff nowadays is made to be cost efficient. Lucky for us Uncle Sam still requires some pretty high standards for us weldars. Did not miss spell that. A welder is a machine. a weldar is the guy who operates the machine. Look it up in Webster. Just a play on words. Very true. Difference between a monkey and a craftsman.

Yep, I have the same problem Sonny.
I have an MTC Clutch to go it ... when I get there.

Or I can put a Larger Diameter sleeve on the end to suit your application.
That's what I did with this pipe to suit the 2¼" Inlet of the Rinehart.

RATS!
The outlet on my CES is 2¼".
Gratitude for the dope, Anthony!

EDIT:
Thanks for the info, Paul!
