Is there a hand tool that can make the end of an exhaust pipe wider or do I have to bring it to a shop for that ? If so will Midas do it or who do you recommend ? I am not sure if its steel or aluminum.

I imagine you need that lil 90 degree end to this for this to seals. Call around before you go cracker on the pipe :D

If your not sure if its steel or aluminum, grab a magnet and see if it sticks to it. Steel it will stick. Aluminum the magnet will not.

Thanks for the replies. I went with the supertrapp 633-3401. I am gonna cut the connector pipe in half and use flexible stainless steel hose in between. The can will be mounted with the supertrapp badge facing the inside of the bike. I suppose that connector pipe that comes with the can is steel. I will soon find out. The connector pipe will be slightly less outside diameter so I need to widen the ends of the connector pipe so the stainless hose
fits snug over pipe ends.
