Brock's vs. Hindle???
So besides map support, customer service, and a name plate, is there a difference between Brock's Generation 3 StreetSmart exhaust header and the Hindle Race (step) exhaust header? If so, what is the difference?
I always assumed they were the same, however, Brock's site says:
quote:
"Please note: Due to a difference in pipe construction, the SHORTMEG™ Conversion system WILL NOT adapt to existing Generation 1 or 2 systems. Additionally, they are also incompatible with Standard or Race" (step) Hindle Exhausts.
What's the difference between the Hindle Standard vs. Race? Just 2" vs. 2.25" outlet or is there more?
Thanks for any help. I've been thinking about upgrading from my S/O's to a full system for a while now. I've been leaning towards a Brock's Generation 3 but have run across a deal on the Hindle Race that would be about half the cost.

I would recommend just waiting for a used Brocks system. That's what I did. It took a super long time to finally get, but it was worth it. I did a lot of trading and selling exhaust systems, but when it's all said and done, I've only spent $450 for my exhaust due to trading up, and selling up. If you're patient, you can save a lot of money.

I think they are slightly different inside the collector. There is a divider plate or something that is different on the Brock's.

Thanks Shane!
That wouldn't explain why the Brock's pipe wouldn't work on a Hindle header though.
Still scratchin' my head?
