Default Mixing exhaust components?

I currently have a Yoshi slipon but wanted to try out the HMF powerbomb header pipe, does anyone know if this can be done? If so please reply, any info would be greatly appreciated.

They make it shorter so you have to buy the end pipe to fit the head pipe....meaning a shorter headpipe and a longer mid pipe to connect to the headpipe and to the end pipe...basicly just to make money how I see it...

I might take a shot at trying to mix the two. I compared Crotts' powerbomb on his warrior to the stock header on my Warrior, and they seem to meet at the same approximate place behind the reverse lever. I'm wondering if the dia. might be the issue. I have a friend that also has a Warrior who will possibly buy it from me if it doesn't work. I'm sure he wouldn't mind not paying shipping for it and just buying a silencer. This experiment may fail, but if it works I think these components may make a good combo.

I'll let you know a.s.a.p. when I'm done with it. If I can't find this thread for whatever reason I'll send you a message. I asked Crotts about the P.B. header and he told me it was the same dia. as the stock one. The meeting place does look pretty accurate, so I think It'll work. The main feature that I want is that bubble in the P.B. that allows the gasses to cool and reduce backing. I think that would be a good feature to have with the Yoshi. I'll probably have the header in about a week or two if all goes as planned.
