Default More of my new setup

Well this is a continuation of my other thread, https://www.homemadeturbo.com/forum/...?topic=49636.0

So since then I have finished my charge piping, made my downpipe, got my new 48/60 t3, my full race manifold, tial wastegate etc. I think I've got a few more hours of work and I'll be done, havent really been hauling *** or anything, just working on it here and there. I think I'm going to buy a tig welder, maybe one of the cheap china ones. Here is the new progress:

Started the IC to turbo pipe


Tacking it up to finish it


And my downpipe


Every bit of piping from my turbo to throttle body and turbo to tailpipe is made from summit 2.5" mandrel u-bends and a little bit of straight pipe. Give me some input on my horrible welding abilities

welds are welds so long as they hold air.
