   hi all
   right this is my nightmare lol ok i have a mk2 VTR with a raceland 4banch manifold and this saturday just gone i have had a full piper system fitted by demontweeks but the sleeve on the manifold keeps slipping back and is blowing from there, i have had this put back several times, and now has 2 clamps and its still doing it.
   
   does anyone have any ideas how i can stop this?
   
   thanks danny

   what are you using to seal it? Use high temp silicon sealer rather than exhaust paste. This will flex. Worst case get it welded

   any local motorfactor. Look for gasket paste or similar

   +1 sometimes called liquid gasket too, sealed the sleeve on my old bike exhaust with it. "should" be available at some decent DIYs too...
