In English? lol. You mean the actual branches that head down or the diameter of the pipe after they have all joined up?

The individual pipes off the head

[ringram]

The pipe diameter from the head port to the collector. Just asking because they look quite small...

I have found them very good and the exhaust has been on for over 18 months and 15k miles with no problems.
And i found them very helpfull.

[stigmundfreud]

I just found the finish not too particularly great, did the job very well but over all not impressed.

[after_shock]

The capa ones do look well!

They still look new now and thats after 18 months or more.

dunno if its what stig was going on about but the original capa exhausts some of the early holden import and monaro owners got "fell apart" and corroded very quickly. LSV supplied and fitted them and had to sort replacements for some people iirc.

I didnt know that, My ones are stainless steel and were HTC coated from now and still look great.

got mine from there they were ill fitting and pitted to glory inside a year. Outside of LSV's controls to be fair to them they were just the supplier.

Years ago we were not aware that Australian 'stainless steel' is, shall we say, broadly defined. This caused us a lot of trouble and I believe we replaced most of the exhaust systems we fitted back then. Once bitten, we now assess any such imports very carefully prior to supply, and continue to monitor them for quality, as sleeping dogs have been known to lie.
