TDM headers a slightly tighter angle which means they will be pushed hard up under your motor... Shop around a few local companies will maake large bore headers and 2 into 1 collector.. I just sold one I had from pipemasters with a megacycle can and worked quite fine.. I think Fung has one also from ttranzac so they make your headers for around $650 and just choose your owwn 50mm can with whatever outlet you want

No.
Tdm engine leans forwards at a steeper angle to trx.

''Craybait'' Scott is looking to move his 2 into 1 system I think. Perth based. Send him a PM. My old headers with a GSXR can. He reckons they are to loud, I thought they were ok.

I only moved them to use a new Akrapovic system. :win
Cheers,
Alan.

Just to be clear..Is the engine leaning forward at a steeper angle in the TDM chassis( but is the same engine externally) or do the cylinders actually lean more forward from the crankcases? Even so it would seem to be a far cheaper option to have the headers 'adjusted' as the full stainless system offered is so reasonably priced. Just a thought from an old tight-wad...

1. TDM has a lower oiltray as well, when changing to TDM enjun i had to put the TRX one on the motor.
2. Swede "JÃ¥ke" put his Akra TDM on the TRX but had to make a new piece of linkpipe, else the can would hang much to low!
