Learned a lot from this forum, thanks guys…
For the 22’s, has anyone tried or heard of someone trying to cut the headers prior to the y-pipe and then buying or fabricating a collector/mid-pipe that would enable a 19-21 system to be slid on? I’m tempted… the header tubes individually spec’d at 51mm (basically 2 inches) OD give or take .3mm near the collector and were 107mm wide collectively. So it would basically be a 2 x 2” inlet into whatever size outlet you would want… I think the 19-21 system mid pipes were 51mm/2” mid pipes into the cat but 4” into 2” seems restrictive, if it didn’t have to be that way… idk… maybe the engine likes the back pressure.
I have been pestering Competition Werkes to develop a 19-21 de-cat system and then offer an optional y/mid pipe that would enable 22+ owners to cut the headers and slip on. It would be loud. Had an MT-10 with their kit on it and I loved it. Guy I have been mailing said to check back in spring.
I saw the Salwicki video and I thought that full system looked and sounded great. So far they only have a post-cat slip-on on their website though, and in my opinion it looks much less attractive. I used to live in that town… maybe next time I’m there I’ll poke my head in and see where they’re at with it.
