Unless you have the proper gas and stainless wire, I wouldn't mig weld it. MIG welding all of the with mild steel will erase any durability or bling for that matter that the customer paid for when they spec'd stainless.


I would be bummed If I bought a stainless exhaust and all of the ------- welds rusted the next week. :3 ;D ;)

yup,it's stainless from aaron.

Then, again, I would skip the MIG unless you have stainless wire. But, I guess you bought it now...

Since its 409 then after a while it will tarnish and apear rusty. Most muffler shops use regular wire to weld 409, but I would go the step above, and get the correct wire.

muffler shops seem like they do ---- work on purpose, so you can come back for repairs in 2-3 years.
