I got some pipe from Demontweeks on the recommendation of someone on here (about 4 years ago). It cost £17 and arrived 2 days later and took 15 minutes to cut up with a hacksaw and hammer down the inside of the silencer. I had always meant to put a screw or something in but they have been fine without anything.

I can't be any more help I'm afraid but if you ring the part dept at Tweeks they will probably know what diameter you will need.

Thats the one ! (only I didn't bother taking the cans off before sleeving them).

If the reference to Tweeks's website doesn't work for any reason then give them a ring - it was very simple.

The effect is stunning - the simplest, most effective and cheapest modification you will make to your car !
