Nicely done :)

Just curious as to what you ended up doing with the collector and diameter of the link pipe and can you used.

FWIW, I ran a similar set-up (link mated up to collector cut shortly after where pipes join) up. I used a 98 R1 Blue Flame twin-port high-mount can and link pipe (52mm IIRC). The results I got were a very, very slight increase in peak power (@ 0.5 bhp) but a drop in overall torque (@ 2 lb-ft ) with a significant dip in the curve between 4800-6500 rpm.

the link pipe is 48mm in side and 52mm od so the pipes is 2mm thick .
the can is a 52mm in and 52mm out , the can is a scorpion race can and is 50mm longer than the other cans i had ..
all i did to the headers is remove the out lets section . this gave me a nice big 48mm od pipe to connect my link pipe up to.
and i cleaned up the welds on the in side of the collects where it meets the engine , but i havent fitted the modified rear down pipe so the welds are still there on the fitted one .

Seems that the restriction in the standard system is from the collector back....
Which is very good news, as a big bore exhaust will give good results.......
Mind you, doesn't the printout show 136Bhp at 10,002 rpm?
What on earth happened there?

When he hit the limiter it spiked lol .
Yep the rear splitter is very restrictive .
I was thinking about making a bigger bore split link pipe to fit on to the 2-1 headers so to turn it back into a 2-1-2 but without the restriction . But that can wait till next year

Modified my other headers today in to a 2-1 :) .i just need to get a new rear down pipe to collector gasket before I can fit them .
ImageImage
And when I modified these I got a nice clean cut with a smaller cutting disc .
So now I have the rear collector in one piece ImageImageImagenow I can take that to the exhaust shop (when funds are better) to use as a template for a bigger bore section . But have it removable :) so I swap and change between the two .

The other 2-1 headers will be up for sale next week after they have been sand blasted :)
