Default DP question.

noob here.. never fabricated before and I was just wondering if you can make A/C compatible DP (driver side) with two 180 pipes. I'm planning on doing 2.5" or should I go 3" The motor is y7 and small T3 turbocharger off of a volvo or saab. Or is "pie cutting" the only option? help please.

I made a 3" DP off my 14b, but that's passenger side. I think it could be done driver side but it's gotta go under the oilpan which is like 6" offcenter. It'll be a wicked bend, and after that you have the oil drain to worry about. Why can't you flip the turbo and make the DP come off the passenger side?

no need for a/c. just roll the windows down. its just a power draining luxury.

so it's impossible to make a DP with the 180 bends??

I bought all my turbo parts planning on making it A/C compatible.. bought that wicked log mani from CSaddict and small T3 turbo and already installed slimmer fans to radiator and A/C condenser.

Any tips??

Here's the list of things I'm going to get to make my A/C compatible DP. let me know what you guys think

1x T3 5 Bolt flange
1x 2.5" Mild V Band Assembly
2x 2.5" 180 degrees mild steel pipe 3.75 radius
3x 2.5" Mild Steel Tube (a foot long each)

How does that sound?

nothings impossible, just ------- get in there and start fabbing it up. a downpipe is fairly easy to make.
