Corvid, Ive very nearly finished mine, Im just waiting for my local tool place to get my 150mm burr in (its been 4 weeks since i ordered it...) so i can finally weld on the turbo flange. If you want pics go to: http://home.iprimus.com.au/thekirbys/Rex_o_rama/P0 000002.jpg http://home.iprimus.com.au/thekirbys/Rex_o_rama/P0 000004.jpg http://home.iprimus.com.au/thekirbys/Rex_o_rama/P0 000005.jpg http://home.iprimus.com.au/thekirbys/Rex_o_rama/P0 000006.jpg http://home.iprimus.com.au/thekirbys/Rex_o_rama/P0 000009.jpg http://home.iprimus.com.au/thekirbys/Rex_o_rama/P0 000010.jpg It doesnt look to good at the moment because its had some grinding and a layer of oil to stop it rusting before i get it ceramic coated. I can make you one but what you'll want/get depends on you're price range. If there's anything you want to know dont hesitate to PM or eMail me at two_fat_ladies@hotmail.com Rexy Wexy [Report message to a moderator]

thats looking really good Rex. i seen the pics last time you posted, very nice. tell me, did you get your manifold flange cut? or buy a pre-cut one that was for a 4age extractor? [Updated on: Tue, 24 June 2003 10:59] [Report message to a moderator]

The whole lot, both flanges and all tubes were all cut and finished using hacksaw/drill and file. Yes, very tough on my delicate girlie hands ... Welded by MIG. A burr is a cutting tip that is used in the end of a die grinder. The die grinder is what i used to basically smooth the internal surface of the thing. Its easy to see how well it works looking straight down the collector. [Report message to a moderator]

shite, i did mine that way too. the turbo flange was easy, it must of taken you a while to get the manifold flange like that..
i cheated and went the most simple shape i could. Smile

Yeah, i dont remember what i could have been thinking... Looking back it was a stupid, needless idea. If i was to do it again. I wouldnt bother. Affirmative on the steampipe. [Updated on: Wed, 25 June 2003 11:28] [Report message to a moderator]
