I dont need it, but another guy I know, bought a bandit, and I was wondering if he could get the midpipe gutted to increase flow?

If a 2nd gen would fit I have a system you could try with.  Local pick-up of course.

The early 2G midpipe (late ones have the midpipe welded to the can - like the B6) will work on a 1G if you use the 2G muffler.
The bolt pattern is the same on both, but the clocking is different.

Well, that would bolt up, but would be even more difficult to gut than the OEM 1G stuff.
