3" Custom Downpipe - what did you buy, advice and critique required!
#1
Want to get the 205 moving along, need to make a downpipe for the GT2052V, what have people used?

Stainless or ordinary steel?

Obviously it'll be 3" 90 degree so heres a few I've found on eBay from a quick search:

Bend 1:

Bend 2:

Search results:

It'll then need some flexi pipe right so have people gone for 3" again straight after the bend then reduced down to 2.5" straight after the flexi?

is this flexi long enough or will I likely need a longer one with more "flex"?

3" Flexi x4":

Then I'll need some straight pipe and various bends but I can just get that fabricated at a garage or buy the appropriate bends off eBay / whatever once I have the downpipe all sorted.
