Not inside or outside radius.
I believe he's right about the 9886, also 110mm is very long.
I remeasured. Wire is yellow in the pic. 100mm. Best I can get.

The price is right;

Do you know what rpm you need the engine to turn?
The onroad manifold I got measure about 45mm, it's from Hipex.
I'm not sure on how the pipe is mounted, but remember that Picco has an angled outlet. The "normal" offroad manifold is easy to tweak, but I doubt it's possible with an onroad manifold.
I don't have a specific number in mind. Just want crazy strong power and as fast as it'll rev. I need to use an on-road manifold because of the engine layout. Most buggies and truggies have the engine mounted with the exhaust to the rear of the truck. The LST truck has the engine mounted with the exhaust is facing to the left of the truck looking at it from the rear. The header needs to come off the engine, drop some, and make a 90 degree bend to mate with the pipe.
The pipe you linked to costs almost the same as the Novarossi 9886.
