^ that customer actually reported a drop from a consistent 9.18 to a consistent 9.12, from the exhaust upgrade alone. Keep in mind, i was simply asked to replicate that setup, its truly not ideal, not being equal length, or long enough for that matter. Just goes to show what a difference having a proper collector will make.

So much eye candy.
Some of the little things: had to relocate the wastegate actuator, so i made a new bracket. http://imageshack.us/a/img842/5701/t...torbracket.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img24/8813/turbobracket.jpg simple manifold reinforcement: http://imageshack.us/a/img18/1402/si...dreinforce.jpg What i do all day, everyday: True duals 2.5" stainless steel 05 Tundra. http://imageshack.us/a/img38/2265/tundrassexhaust.jpg Stainless backsplash for a friends kitchen: http://imageshack.us/a/img153/2941/sskitchen.jpg Veggie omelet burrito/Taco: http://imageshack.us/a/img824/623/ve...letburrito.jpg Unfortunately my work doesn't touch the skill-set I've been seeing on this thread.

Attachment 185394 Attachment 185395 Beads rolled, holes punched. Attachment 185396 hand rolled and welded perforated tube.. (this was hardly by choice, i'm on a time restriction here, and couldn't get the material I needed.)

Some equal length headers with stepped primaries for a 95 camaro. Space simply wasn't available down low on the passenger side, so they went up.

How do you weld regularly and not set that jew fro on fire?

Some pretty sick fabrication going on in this thread. I'm sure I said that already a few times.
Here's a PWC dolly I made before the winter. Quickly disassembles and hangs on the wall. http://www.absurdflow.com/misc/skidolly1.jpg http://www.absurdflow.com/misc/skidolly2.jpg |

That looks pro. It would have been slick to weld some tabs to the bottom frame and the padded cradle and then pivot-bolt the uprights to that, so the whole thing would scissor down flat for storage. Even set the uprights inboard so that when "up" the legs would extend down even with the long lower rails, with a pin to lock them. (Although it would have to be aluminum to lift it all up and hang it though.. |

Pathetic compared to some of the other stuff in this thread, but I recently repaired a split JR header. Welded around then some reinforcement tabs to hopefully strengthen it up a bit. Here's some free advice: Don't drag your exhaust around a lap of PIR supported by nothing but the header.

V6 accord for some HELLAFAB!

Not as pretty as some of the stuff on here but I'm building a single turbo setup for a 2011 Nissan 370Z
This is the merge and up-pipe. Pretty much done except there's a flex pipe on there now. http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5458/9...37b5317c_z.jpg IMAG1074 by Gorillazfan, on Flickr Here's the down pipe http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3790/9...47a8c6fa_z.jpg IMAG1153 by Gorillazfan, on Flickr Not to shabby for a MIG http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5333/9...668636d2_z.jpg IMAG1160 by Gorillazfan, on Flickr |

Basically its a modified Borg s256, 1000cc ID injectors, tial ewg and bov, all custom piping. Shooting for 450-500 safely on 93. And then 500-550 on e85. We've gotten some hate for not using the precision 6266 everyone else does but they rate that at like 990hp capable. This Borg, with upgrades, should take us to 600whp and hopefully with e85 and ebc make full torque 1000rpm sooner then any other kit |

So being a welder by profession does not help when you're shittered drunk...
Whipped up a little cart for the Tig machine today. Used the Miller 211(i love this thing) But as i said, being drunk does not help anything. Attachment 185349 Attachment 185350 Clearly it's not done yet. I started hearing gunshots (yes, really) plus it was getting dark. Going to put a bit of sheet metal down on the bottom, and get some 1/8x(whatever the casters i have is) and make them stick out a little from the frame. After getting getting as far as i did i realized it was a little tippy. That will all be solved after i mount the casters. Might put a few hangers on the sides for all the different lines and what not. Will try out the plasma cutter tomorrow to cut the sheet metal. Using that little itty bitty compressor you see next to the Miller. We'll see how it goes... |
Pfft. Gunshots... I hear gunfire almost every time I go to my shop. Can't let a little gunfire interrupt your productivity.

Sobered up for a few minutes and finished this.
Gonna get a bottle, then i'll be almost ready to make some exhausts. Attachment 185343 Used the plasma cutter. It worked great, and my little air compressor believe it or not, was more than enough. Attachment 185344 Attachment 185345 Attachment 185346 |
