Ping Pip.

Your twisty metal baffle thingies, do they need to be a snug fit, or
would say a 30mm wide metal strip work in a 47mm hole?

 

are you dissing his bird?

 

No, I quite like my testicles where they are.

 

I've always used a strip cut to be a snug fit: a 47mm pipe would, IWT,
require a ~45mm strip. If you have only have 30mm strip it's worth a
go, though I would expect a reduction in benefit as there's going to be
a straight shot bypassing the effect of the twister.

 

Ahh, he's just a big softy.

eww.

 

Turns out I've only got 25mm, so I'll be off to B&Q later. I presume
alu would be ok, at least for testing purposes?

 

I don't see why not - you're not going to get alu melting temps at your
tailpipe, I presume.

 

try a chicken chilli masala.

 

No, just alu cracking vibes I suspect.

 

Had one of them in Northumberland - fairly kept the chill of the night
away, that did - right until lunchtime the following day.

The Madras I had the other night, mind - hotter than most Vindaloos,
the bastards.

 

Truly curling one out.

 

Is this still an elaborate genitalia joke?

 

Only if you like sticking yours up an exhaust pipe. Come to think of it,
didn't I see your picture on the internet once?

 

Assuming those two sentences are unrelated, possibly.

 

So you're saying you've never owned a Range Rover then?

 

<straight bat>I have never owned a Range Rover</sb>

Actually, WTF are you on about?

It's a pretty famous pic.

 

Heh.

Actually, the funniest thing on that page (and saddest, in a way) is that
"The usually gentile town of Frinton-on-Sea" is almost certainly a
genuine mistake. What a missed opportunity.

 

Well the biggest I could fit in, given the angle, is 40mm, so that's
what I did. They're the full length of the can & straight bit of the
link pipe. The results are:

Race cans with just the db killers at 5k RPM: 99.6db.
As above but with twisty metal inserts: 99.6db.

So I'd say that's a resounding fail! Maybe a 500cc cylinder's worth of
gas is too much for the twister to deal with.
