Hi Dar,

I'm so sorry about the mistyping about your your name, I apologize. As you sai, I have to overcome first the overheatingand that is what I'm going to do on sunday. about the distance between the edge of the header and the edge of the silencer it was originally 1.25" and if I understood well this distance was in the range that you mentioned but the engine was overheated, however, as you suggested I'll trim the silicone hose up to 2" then, I'll start to tune it and cut as much as I can without overheat the engine and get the best response from the engine.

On monday I'll let you know what happened and what was the final result.

Thanks you very much again for you answers, and sorry again abour your name []

Regards,

Ricardo
