I am finding the viper can too loud for me (even with the baffle in) and would prefer a stock can for the quiet life
My question is will a standard can fit on the 4-1 pipe? and if yes, does anyone have a standard can for sale?
I have no idea what make the 4-1 system is.
Any help or suggestion appreciated.
Thanks Gary

If you wait a couple of hours i'll measure the diameter of the one in my garage for you.

I think I will take off the viper can and link pipe and measure the outside diameter of the 4-1 pipe too.
Cheers :)

Standard end can has an approximate inner diameter of 50mm, but mine has an inner sleeve that makes it approximately 47mm.
Hope that helps. 8)
Cheers mate - I just measured the O/D of my 4-1 pipe and as best as I can see it's about 45mm or so - I reckon its close enough to match up.

If its the same as standard can we strike up a swap deal for my standard?
Cheers
Sure why not - sounds like a good option for us both :)

Ill pull mine off soon (?) and just check the sizes and sleeving. Ill also send you a pic of mine cos it has a couple of places where my heel has took some paint off the link pipe.
The silencer itself is spotless.

It's a bugger when that happens....

I've tried tapping it off also but I don't want to damage the thing if its going to someone else.

I've never come across a stock one that doesn't just pull off without much effort :( Not sure what to suggest as you appear to have tried everything I would have

Its not pulling off. Its not twisting off. I have stainless headers on so I'm thinking they may be some very old exhaust sealant keeping it stuck fast.
I've tried tapping it off also but I don't want to damage the thing if its going to someone else.
Yeah - don't wreck that now you hear!
The viper came off mine no bother. There was a gasket on the link pipe where it joins the header so will leave that in if you can do the same for your one.
