On top of Darren's comments about long systems working better on these engines, the flow characteristics from having a short header leading to a weird shaped box containing weird shaped baffles and an exit through stubby tailpipes, none of which align with the natural flow direction must be awful.
However as usual, it is all being built faultlessly and I'll repeat .. I do understand that performance is not the major requirement here.
It still makes me whince a bit though.

i cant disagree I just wanted this build to be different... However... secretly I have welded a few spare lugs so if I later decide on either twin, single side, or even under seat exhaust the option is there...
