<p>Hi Tim,</p>
<p>I agree with Karl - definitely not the right thing to fix a hole
- your tin can would be better employed straight on the hole, if
you can't do a welded repair. And there will be vibration in the
pipe - flexipipe is mainly to cope with rocking back and forth of
the engine as power goes on and off.</p>

Thanks Neil. This is down stream of the flex pipe that is still
in perfect condition. Does your reply still make sense then?

is approaching the end of reliable DD.)</div>

Thanks Karl. Same question to you: Does your reply still make
sense since I am down stream of the exhaust manifold?</div>

Again, thanks all for the replies. Just trying to extend the

<p>Sandwiching it between the exhaust and a can will hammer it -
not surprised it fell apart! It'll be getting the vibration
(relatively low frequency) as well as the noise frequencies
you were blocking - that energy had to go somewhere...</p>

I used a couple feet to patch a break and muffle the noise
in an exhaust pipe on my wife's DD. It was held in place
with a can and hose clamps. It worked fine for a couple
weeks then started to get loud again. Yesterday I pulled the
can to see what was going on and just about all the wrap was
gone. </div>
