Ew on the design of that 2-1 merge.
Should merge like this... http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/m...ader/smsp6.jpg http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/m...r/DSC01045.jpg |
:rofl: no doubt they can weld, no doubt Dave it correct.
|
Dayum! I only wish I could weld like that. All I can promise is that my welds will hold...still working on aesthetics. Then again, I don't have a TIG.
|
great job pushing the "flower" button, btdubz. :giggle:
|
I'd love to see the car where that piece will actually fit in ;) It'd stick out like a sore thumb on any of the Miatas I've seen.
|
Jeezus titty fucking christ! Like a row of coins. Me tink hey practice welly hard.
|
Welds look fantastic (are they hand welded??) but Splittime's got a point too.. why not make the 2-1 merge as smooth as the cyl 2-3 merge?
|
I call machine welded!!
Oooh.. And have fun installing that thing with a motor IN the car.

I like how they included a built-in 3 year lifespan flexi joint so that they can have your money again and again

Looks almost too good to use.......

I broke the shit out of my finger installing the header in that picture. :mad: |
jack the car up high enough and there's no issue.....my J/R was a breeze. Likewise, i usually install my turbo, and DP as one unit.
|
Did you install it from the bottom?!?
|
no. but the DP is easier doing it like that.
|
pretty good quality header....one thing i dont get though: quality peice, im sure it costs a crapload, and still gains what like 2-3hp? i guess i just dont see the fun in keeping the miata n/a.

Cylinder head, Transmission bell housing, steering shaft, body, A-Arms. All of those are big time in the way if you're attempting a long tube install with the motor in the car.
I broke the shit out of my finger installing the header in that picture. :mad: Yeah i installed my header in like literally 15 minutes.. its not that bad.. Now go try installing headers on a lt1 f-body, now thats a PITA |

incidentally, the entire flex section is stainless, not just the caps. |
