Nice.

I had no idea RPI had a forum. Glad the DIY's are in an easy spot.

What is that tube and why does it need to be plugged?

E, That looks to be a 550...Does that mean we have a 550 prototype? Did you just step up the pipe on the 545 exhaust to match the 550?

Any advantages/disadvantages between welding or using the clamp?
