Ok, I purchased the T-Bike pipes. I had visited them in Nelson and they advised they did have a plating problem but they now use a different guy and they have not encountered any problems. Not too concerned about any serious performance increase just want a better sound than stock but not too loud.
Anyway, before I start, to anyone that has installed these, how many of you needed to heat the flange attachment bolts as per the instructions, my oxy-acetylene torch is out of commission and just want to know success rate without having to use heat.
