how heavy is that wg eden? one of my biggest concerns was the weight of mine as under fast road going conditions that pipe will get so hot esp with those bend the gasses have to go round; are you thinking of supporting it?

yeah it is quite weighty, but im going to sly the screamer pipe out the bottom of the a-panel i think, so thell be a support bracket somewhere in the mix.
