The down turn pipe is 60mm dia on the straight portion. The pipe leading from the main exhaust to the rear box is also 60mm dia.

thanks a lot, Jo

now that translates into 2,36 inches, or a little less than 2 3/8... which probably means that if we are talking about welding, the closest matching tip will be 2,5 inches or 63,5mm. I wonder what diameter the pipe that Jay fitted was... Cheers,

So the SC pipe is wider than the diesel pipe.... a previous post I found said they were the same (but didn't mention any measurements).

as I understood TDV8 pipes = SC pipes, and TDV6 are thinner. Cheers,

looks like replacing the end part of the stock exhaust system with stainless tubing and welded-on chrome tips will improve both the sound and the looks.

gotta explore this further Cheers,
