• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I don't have a Hindle, (mine's a Two Brothers Racing unit).................my TBR slip on did not use a gasket like the stock S pipe did. The stock gasket came out stuck inside the stock S pipe; sounds like yours stuck to the outside of the collector pipe. Just pull it off. My TBR slip on came with some high temp RTV silicone sealer, to run a bead around the inside of the S pipe mouth; that didn't seal the joint completely for me, so I ran my Spyder up on some low profile car ramps to access the underside of my Spyder more easily. I used my finger tip to run force the high temp RTV into the S pipe/collector pipe seam; then used a shop rag to wipe off any excess RTV. Sealed mine up fine. Good luck! BTW: Ultra high temp RTV would probably be more appropriate for this type of application.........................just sayin'.

Not to long ago I posted up the summit racing part number for the band clamp we used. Works great and seals perfect with no glues needed.
