Don Pilling at Snake Bite sells s/steel or mild steel sidepipes but they are cosmetic ones not operational. Just bought some mild steel ones for $755

Hi all
Aussie Mike makes the best pipes I have ever seen. He's pretty expensive though.
Post some pictures Mike
Try Di Fillipo exhaust in Melton Victoria. I have just finished talking with them about side pipes and they have made all types of exhausts and will also supply the parts to do your own. Aussie Mike told me he uses these guys
jpfletch1 - I'm guessing that with a Backdraft you are either in South Africa or the States so Aussie suppliers are not much use. Still we do have some good designs/types.
Cheers
Bernie

Leeroy sent me some pics of the cosmetic side pipes he's getting from Don. Very nice work, a real cool traditional style to them too.
Thanks Bernie,
I've made mine with emissions compliance and servicability in mind so they aren't as pretty as Don's. They have cat converters inside them and are easy to strip and repack. Don't know what they sound like but I'll find out in a few months I guess. There are some pics in my gallery if you are interested.
Darren DiFilippo has been making side pipes for Python lately and he does some nice fabrication work. He's been very helpful with supplying materials for my headers and exhaust and he's a real enthusiast.
Cheers

Make sure you let us know how LOUD they are Mike.
I too like the idea of legal working side pipes and if you can get yours to pass emmisions then I may attempt to make a pair aswell.

One thing to keep in mind is that s/steel sidepipes can sometimes sound a bit more "tinny" than your everyday mild steel set.
just my 2 cents

Just picked up the latest - in Australia - copy of Kit Car and there is a two page article on exhausts with some web. sites.
Makes good reading and viewing of sites.
