---- yes!

 

Me three. My manifold I MIG'd with cast steel fittings still hasn't cracked, and its carrying the turbo's full weight and has the added stress of a recirculated dump w/o a flex on it. Solid.

 

So I done a bit more welding.

Sorry for the crap phone camera pics again.


My super jig to stop my flange from warping!


Tacked on just incase




Tacked on the runners


Welded runners 2 and 3 first


All Welded up

Just need to clean up the splatter and weld on the Turbo flange. Also need to weld on the wastegate flange.. still figuring it out.

thanks for looking.

 

nice job. i'd definitely rock that.

 

good job man! what did you use to cut the holes in the 90's for the 2 & 3 runners? holesaw?

 

I used a plasma cutter for that. I took the manifold off the jig and there's no warpage so I'm pretty pleased with that. Next is the wastegate flange and T3 flange. Not sure which order to do it first. Once that's done I'll completely clean up the splatter.

 

It's almost done.

Just need to fully weld up the t3 flange and the waste gate flange.




thinking of mounting the wastegate flange like this.

 

that looks really good. i'd rock it.
