The only problem I have is that my 0801 pipe stinger is bent and I need a replacement. I have been reading about the 2072 and the pics show the reinforced stinger which I think will help. Where can I buy this pipe in the US? I have looked and only see it for sale on the MassiveMods site. Thanks in advance.
hi jeremy,

have you tried heating the pipe up in the oven (180 celcius) and inserting a screw driver in the stinger and straightening it again? ive done this with the 0801 twice now and it has done the trick. ive also used this method to re-shape a bent header as well.

i know Amain sell Go products so try emailing them to see if/when they're getting the 2072's.

Mike
