I just ordered some today...

Very nice! Is that 2 different cutouts? One set up front and one in the rear?

Default Qtp

Different lengths because the exhausepipes into the silencer is located in two different modes. Sorry for my home made English

From looking at the pictures, it appears he had to mount the cutouts in different places on the over axle pipe due to clearance issues - and in order to keep the bottom of the pipes a uniform distance off the ground he had to make the two pipes a different length.

Some pretty detailed work there for sure! Nice job Hakan.

By the way, Hakan taught me something cool - Google has a great translate feature that we use to communicate - it does a great job if you ever need to communicate with someone. Makes me think...how many years away are we from the "Universal Translator" from Star Trek...you speak into your iPhone and it translates into another language and plays it out the speaker....
