Just finished a 3 inch straight through exhaust for an evo 9, topped the scales at 4kg. 12kgs less than the stainless one I replaced.

oh it was quite the event adrian i was making up some inter-cooler piping when the piece i was cutting caught the grinder and was flung at me the round section of pipe imbedded in my for head making me look like a unicorn. (my old man maintains i looked like a dick head) when it came out i had a egg ring for a third eye.
