Default MVVS 1.60 tuned pipe ??

Hi
Does anybody have the length and diameter of the mvvs tuned pipe #3266 for the 26cc petrol
also the inlet pipe dia ??

The cannisters we have looked at are 55mm and 62mm dia which need too much cutting and carving to get inside the fus...also the full length tuned pipe gives the best performance so we are going to see if we can get the full length pipe hidden inside

cheers Shaun and Ollie

Having run the engine on the in cowl and the pipe plus Skorepa pipe -- the lightest setup and the quietest is the Skorepa . the best value cost wise, is the std pipe n header use as is -- use a quality 18x6 prop -let it run ! the engine develops best power around 9000 which is high 8000 on the ground and up to 10000 in the air on the recommended Mobil 1 fuel with the carb set properly, the thing just goes n goes n goes
