if you were to make your own exhaust by buying pipe in sections, what angle/lengths would you need? not including the downpipe.
I think you would need to layout a std exhaust and measure it all mate.
bit of your time and a pen/paper and tape!
I know dum dum has done it, but he used 3" bore

I think Jonny has made a couple now, he would be the best to help :p
You need the following (for an estate, assume the same for a sedan?)

2m straight pipe (you only need 95cm IIRC for the main centre section, but it's worth having the spare for the back etc..)
1x 45* bend
2x 60* bends
1 15cm flexi section
1x welded 90* tight radius bend (if you have a tdo4 or similar with a side facing exit)
a backbox of some sort.

Top one is off my estate with a rear exit GT20, the bottom one is off Carl's sigma TD04 XUD
Thought you were having one made up?

I think all you would need would be two 60 degree bends and we could only get the straight pipe in 2 meter lengths with some left over, so not sure exactly how much you would need.

I'd double check the angles, as I can't remember exactly lol
My list is correct, just checked the part numbers

It is also worth buying a mandrel bent 90* to chop up to make small bends where needed. or if you're not that fussed about flow you can just cut pipes at an angle.
I only want it from the downpipe, as I already have a downpipe made, just need the rest onwards to the back.
In that case, 2x60* bends, about 1m pipe, and a box.
don't want a box Tongue so 2m pipe, how much of the 60* bends will I need?
Erm, all of them? as in both?
length
just to clarify, standard xud exhaust is 2" right?
Think it goes less than that in places.
How much did that cost you roughly Jonny?
