Thanks AR - will do. I'm not real sharp when it comes to this stuff. Are the Staintunes just a polished stainless from the factory and not already chromed?
I bought a good quality stainless hose clamp from my local marine chandlery and bridged the small gap between the Staintunes and the stockies. It's a cleaner finish, though I suspect no one's going to notice it one way or the other (me included).
I'm loving the burble from these pipes, particularly when you tap the throttle coming down through the gears - not so loud that it blows your ears off but still plenty loud enough for people to know you're there. I agree there's an improvement in low to mid-range torque, and I'm finding the power-on much smoother. AR, thanks for all your comments and photos - they've nudged me nicely in the right direction.
