Hi all. Thought some might get a kick out of seeing the massively ugly concoction I came up with. Yes those are some truly horrible welds, and yes it's over welded, but it's a long story. Believe it or not, I spent many hours on that thing! And no, I'm not making a new one! (for now anyway --- :^) Questions: The flex bushing shown on same page, looks like a butt weld type. I bought it knowing it would be, but looking at it in hand, it just seems like a slip fit would be stronger. Is there such a thing? When looking at Dynomax.com catalogue of pipes, the terminology of ID/ID or ID/OD reducers has me confused. I want to reduce the 2-1/4" OD pipe to stock Vanagon pipe (1-3/4" ? OD) as I'm using a stock Vanagon muffler.
