thats the hard part building a tuned pipe is way way harder than you think ive made a couple that worked well but to get to that point i made and cut and modified the original like 20 or so time to get it right

Oh ok. Im probably being a bit ignorant about it. Have you any suggestions what I could do or where to start for an exhaust?

get your hands on a chamber pipe for something else cut the chamber off cut your stock pipe off where the muffler meets the header pipe and weld the chamber on and go from there .Shorten or lenghen the header and so on .I had better luck and less welding doing it this way
