Nobody has mentioned Hindle. Proudly Canadian.

Only in Canada- 2 more: Wolf & Carron. Gary Wolf made pipes for Z's,Zuks & Hondas. Smokin Joe Carron worked with Wolf ,then went out on his own - I've still got one of his pipes for my MKll.

Holly Crap! How could I have missed them.
Lange Hindle was legendary around my neighborhood.
I met him back in the day. Someone here with a gpz has 1 of his pipes as I recall.
A friend of mine has a Wolf, maybe I can get some measurements. It has about a 3” tail pipe.
So which pipe do u have, and can we get some measurements?

I've got one of Joe Carron's pipes.Very similar to a Yosh pipe(under the motor) with Wolf influences like the short aluminum can. Has to be removed to change the oil.I'm going back to my Denco pipe for a change and will get some pics & measurements soon.

If my headers were blue would that be indicating some sort of fuel mixture problem?

If u are talking about the blue color at the top of the pipe,that is normal.i think it occurs even if u are jetted properly, but will be worse if u are lean. there are products u can spray inside the pipe. this helps to prevent it. once they are blue , i dont know if u can get the blue off.i think there may be products for that as well. it is a discoloration from the heat.OMR put some stuff in his. ask him what he used. the only 1 i can recall is Bue Shield.

Ive never heard of RB headers. do u know what R B stands for?

No, I don't know what RB stands for but it's on the list of headers that eric posted. I have the chance to purchase one and wanted to get a little info first.

RB = Robert Behn or RB Racing. Back in the day he / they made a pipe that looked very much like an original Yoshimura with a Supertrapp baffle stuck on the end of the tailpipe. Never a big player in exhausts, RB went into turbo kits as well.
