Excelent.
Post plenty of pics. If you make a few manifolds you can make some cash off this board.

Cool beans bro! Some pics and other assorted shit would be awesome. Yeah, Kroy's usggestion about homemade manifolds would be great. MIG or TIG?

I'm gonna make mine a log style like this. I will prolly make a couple extra ones.
87 prelude si
87 non-turbo supra
I like that. Its simple and to the point. I just may buy one.
------------------
Thats how im making mine, and there more then likely gonna be tig. I got everything at school plasma cutter, weldin els, mild steel plates, 2" alum. pipe, and my teacher said if i make a donation to some united way thing he host, then i can use what ever i need, I chose the T-25 turbo over the T/3/4 turbo, bigger airflow :-)

keep the 411s coming
Isn't it really damn hard to TIG steel to aluminum? It should go one or the other, but not both. They don't melt at the same temperature, you will bow a hole in the aluminum before you get the steel hot enough to melt.
Wow! That is nice looking! Is that one you made? What kind of material is that?

could you make a few to sell? I need one if you can... thanks
nonono u miss understude me , i mean alum, air flow pipes, the headers are gonna be steel , and the down pipe is gonna be steel

so then they just bolt together. that would make sense. I must have not read it right. right on thought if you can make it work
Well this sounds pretty cool. I wish I had a TIG welder, and plasma cutter those things kick ass. Is this class high school or college? My high school welding class sucked. NO money in the budget.
I'm your local R&D nut. Fabracting, welding, tuning and breaking my stuff so you don't have to.
High School welding was so damn fun. We were a 'hick' school, so things like welding had a huge budget.
And to get it clear...you are going to TIG all of it? I would think that TIG on the aluminum would work, but then steel would be a whole bunch easier MIG. Ooh! You could go SMAW too!
Damn you BMS, I could have never taken welding. Stupid yuppie ass school district.
------------------
My high school was kind of a kick school. Half or us drove lowered cars and trucks the other half was off road crazy. We didn't have money for anything cool and extreme just the basics.

Well im gonna tig the pipes, as far as the headers, i havent desided mig or SMAW........its college classes , i go for like a year doin cuttin , tig, mig , SMAW, advanced pipe.....then when i get out i start at a shop near my house for like 17 an hour to start gettin like 60 hours a week..... its pretty fun......but anyways...ill keep u guys updated on the project

So what stuff would you do in your shop, custom fabracating stuff for cars, exhaust, etc.

everything from alum... to steel....to pipes.....its a diploma program in welding and joining tech

If you can make a pretty good manifold, I'll be all over it if you make a couple more.
