WTD 45mm flexi exhaust

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

Its this stuff

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


1 3/4"' x 4"' Exhaust Flex Tube Joint Flexi Repair Flexipipe 45mm x 100mm 1.75"'

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
