Bit of a long shot but im after a small amount of 45mm flexi exhaust. If anyone is clearing the garage and has a small length...I only need 30-40 cm max. If theres non going ill get a metre from cbs online

it is better to buy flex repair sections which have proper ends and stainless mesh cover than raw flex pipe

That depends on what you are trying to do.

In my case the flexi stuff from CBS solved a problem and got me through a track day

Without seeing where and how the OP wants to use it I could not comment on the suitability for his application

Thanks for the replies chaps. Long story short...ive got a halfed finished BEC (track only). From the gsxr 1100 wp engine goes 4,into 2, into 1. This is about 45mm when it goes into 1. The car has then had a 55mm section welded to the 45mm section that goes to an end can. This is way way too loud. The plan was to put a standard road legal end can on to pass db for tracks.

Ive got no welding expertise and a few tools that an average diyer would have so no real chance of welding it myself. its a track only car so if i took it somewhere it would cost a trailer hire plus works and parts. Im after a cheapish way of overcoming my issue

Ive spent an hour in the cold damp garage this morning and made some progress. All i need now is some standard 45mm exhaust tube.

the new 2 into 1 pice was longer than the standard and was shaped with a slight curve which gives me room and the angle for a straight section

I used TruFlex on mine. Not the cheapest method at £45, but saved a world of pain
