A stock 550 waterbox is made out of SMC and a SN waterbox is fiberglass, I just never thought about it really. I would be curious to what temperature is at the exhaust tube. I realize all of the application's differ but kind of interesting.?? One thing for sure you don't read about people melting the foam out of there hull.

I can vouche for pvc. I used some PVC side exhaust plumbing on my SJ for 2 years. Looked like the day I put it on in the inside and out when I took it off.

Not to mention: Ultra light.
Warm it properly and you can bend it to the perfect shape.

Here are some pics of my 'alternative' RN long hose sitting next to a stock RN long hose. It can be trimmed shorter at both ends to match stock RN length exactly.

My green ski build for daytona has one of these cut down further and used with a xmetal waterbox.

if you guys are worried about temp on plastic pipe use 636 gas vent its white and can take a lot of heat that is what we use on hi efficncy furnaces, costs double the abs, home depot sells the 636 pipe

As of now, my only issue may be that it sits too low. The factory hose has a bend in it so it goes up a bit over the battery then slants down to the pipe that goes out. I won't know for sure till I set the motor in. But it certainly looks cool!
