fr499y 0 Posted November 29, 2011 no not the time when the weather is shitty and were all bored ( well bored maybe!! ) its the time of year where i can't think of anything better to do than whip up designs for end cans and get making!! sooo this time im going to stick with stainless steel as its cheaper and easy to work with the problem is deciding on style, im thinking something a little more skinnier than the usual 110mm wide cans, the typical big bore 2.5" outlets and the typical stubby as hell cans. Im thinking, something around 60-80mm dia, and 370-400mm long with the old school 1.5" or 2" outlet. What you lot recon? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fr499y 0 Posted November 30, 2011 just had a brain fart, might go for quad cans, can get away with 70-75mm dia cans if i do quad, which will be close together but a total height of around 150mm ( 6" ) and can lengths of 370mm on top and 350mm on bottom, that way i can still run 2" outlets and have a choice of 4 configurations fully baffled, top baffled, bottom baffled or straight through. Should cost around £300 completed, just need to work out suppliers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you have twin pipes on each side, make the pipes an "x" shape. From the link pipe 'top to bottom' and 'bottom to top'. description, but hopefully you'll work out what I mean. This is the reason I leave all this to someone else Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fr499y 0 Posted December 16, 2011 messure it and just get a cheap "car dustbin" type baffle, cheap as hell and will do the job, or get some sheet metal, cut a hole in the middle ( i'd say around 1.5" ) and bend the edges to form a circle, drill hole in it to mount in can :P Thats the reason i never used a danmoto GP can, not long enough for the outlet size to do enough sound dampening.
