<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Why we are on this subject, I am wondering what
everyone uses for the outlet of the pipe to direct exhaust out the belly
pan, I have used the dubru rubber one but have seen some aluminum stingers as
well, any opinions? I am setting up a Mintor 170 with mintor pipe and header,
the rubber Dubro unit looks smaller in dia. and I am wondering if it will hurt
performance.</FONT></DIV>
