Title: coring exhaust looking for metal shop in sf Post by: Labbedds on February 24, 2009, 12:02:33 AM Hey everyone, I'm looking for either a metal shop or a moto place to take my stock cans to so they can saw through em so I can core the pipes. I already contacted desmoto and they said they couldn't do it. I'd be bringing them in off the bike and just need an angle grinder or a saw to cut through the pipes to get the internals out. Thanks

Title: Re: coring exhaust looking for metal shop in sf Post by: duckwrench13 on February 24, 2009, 08:29:00 AM Might be able to do it here too. I've opened up a few sets of pipes for a look-see as to the best way to core one. If you want to check out one of the "opened" cans, just swing on by. There's a lot going on in them, so it might be worth checking it out first, before you cut.
As you've probably noticed, I'm not spending much time here lately, so just give me a call... same ol' number.

I swear I read "Hilter" angle grinder and was thinkin' "Who the f' thinks its a good idea to brand their product 'Hitler'?"

Is this a Baffle-ectomy, a Cat-ectomy, or both? Options: Do you wants it loud, smokey, or loud and smokey? [laugh] If it's horsepower you're after, you might want to think about the air filter as well, then re-mapping/getting a new ECU. That get's expensive, but does give you noticeably more power ;D and as a bonus, less gas mileage [coffee] Title: Re: coring exhaust looking for metal shop in sf Post by: Vindingo on February 24, 2009, 12:40:42 PM Suhweeeet, are you back or still in jersey? be back thursday night. so you can give me a call fri or on the weekend Title: Re: coring exhaust looking for metal shop in sf Post by: Labbedds on February 24, 2009, 04:39:06 PM Sweet, maybe we can do it this weekend, i bring beer and pizza. As to what type of core I'm not sure, I think i'd like to get all the guts out then use perforated tubing wrapped with exhaust packing and use Stainless steel ties, then connect that from inlet-outlet and sew her back up, doesn't matter if rivets or self thread screws are used, don't need more hp, just more vroom vroom..
