That should work good, try and clean a little better before welding and you will get rid of that black.

I did, wire brush + Acetone. I used shitty filler rod though. Next time I'll be sure to get some stuff from an actual welding sypply store.

But she'll hold. I was trying to break the weld by hand and I couldn't.

What flange you got on the end? Can barely see part of it.

A wire wheel is not enough to get that thin layer of slag off bare metal. Go over it lightly with a grinder just until it's shiny, it will make a world of difference in the cleanliness of your welds. Overall, good job, that DP looks ****.

Its not a flange. Its actually a coupler that is now clamped with an exhaust clamp. Reason is that the downpipe was made out of 1 U bend and wasn't long enough to reach the high flow cat.
