ORIGINAL: geh3

In oder to make the 54TP function properly, I have decided to change the exhausts as shown.
This is a straight shot out of the TP so it shouldn't affect performance and it will be easy to install..
intereasting hobby this is !!!
Hey George,

Nice job on the build.

I asked Tam for a quote to supply a couple of pipes like yours for my TP installation in a Carf Extra. How did you attach the pipes to the exisitng pipes?

Other thing I'm trying to figure out is how to be able to fuel, start, etc with the canopy on as there's 4 screws used to attach it and if I have to do so after the engines started it may not be much fun. Not sure there's much I'm gonna be able to do about it though.
