Default exhaust advice

i am building my own dual exhaust set up and was wondering what type of pipe should i use and what diameter. i am going to use this with a wet exhaust system and a tuned pipe just want the scale look of a real exhaust and water to come out of both pipes. thanks for the help

Size depends on the boat. Anything between 5/8 and 3/4 should work. If you are going to do it wet just remember when you do your layout that water runs down hill and you don't want it to run back into your engine. Copper tube and silver solder will work for material and a silicone coupler to join the two.

The exhaust tips i have are only 1/2 inch inside diameter and i wanted the pipes to exit thru them so can i make the main pipe 5/8 and the exit pipes 1/2, would this work.
