Your idea may very well work, expanding the pipe that is. I just installed my IDS2 tonight. I put a large bead of high temp silicone in there, slipped the two together and tightened the clamp. I'll find out how it worked tomorrow evening. Supertrapp customer service told me that was the way to install the muffler onto the "S-bend" pipe. If you decide to expand the muffler end of the "S-bend" pipe, let me know how it works out. Cuz, if my installation doesn't work, I'll need an alternative. By the way, if you haven't already experienced it, make sure you split the distance between the muffler and head pipe before tightening the clamps. if you don't, one end of your installation will not have enough pipe mounted in/on its respective receptacle. Learned this the hard way with wet silicone at both ends. Enough to make one toss the pipe out the garage door if one isn't careful. Jim Sherlock
