Side pipe is so much better mate.  Doesnt look as nice as a rear pipe but they come with there own issues.  Try a CPI big bore mate if you want a rear mount Will says good things about his.

They're brilliant, love mine. I wasn't keen on my CPI pipe at first but once i change back to my 668 carb to get rid of low end bogging i was sorted, I would reccomend them.

Here's a couple videos of it running...





Sorry it aint actual running but should give you a rough idea.

Sorry for the hijack :whistling:

Got round to putting it back together here is a quick sneak peak, just off out in a minute to pick up a 5.5mm drill bit to put the side pipe mount on.  Its a pita to mount it to the cage so went with a proper mount this time round.
