I just got some flexible exhaust pipe from JC Whitney.  The stuff is pretty neat, it is very flexible (though will not make an extremely tight bend).  It was inexpensive, and made of 304 stainless.  It is also light weight.
 
So the only questions are how well will it hold up, and how to attach it to the rest of the exhaust system. 
 
Tracy, I understand you have been using flexible pipe and it has been holding up OK.  I just want to make sure you are using the same stuff.  Here is the link to what I have:
 
 
Is that the same stuff you are using?  Has it really held up?  My plan for installation is to have u-joint flanges welded on.  Any better ideas or tips?
