Oh wahhhhh, this guy stepped on everyone in the fab forum, but I'm gonna make fun of people mig welding mild manifolds, even though my first manifolds were mild mig'd, and they do the same exact thing as the bullshit I make now. I actually still use mild flanges, cause I'm cheap.

would you make me one with your diy kit for a t3 and a 35 or 38mm wastegate flange,a/c would be preffered but i dont really mind to much. if so how much would it cost with shipping to 85233. if you dont want to do that how much are your kits and do you have a website.

My website is ---------------------------

I don't make custom manifolds, I just offered to weld one up for an HMT member in need. That's the extent of it.

Hes been around a long ass time. Thats one of the things to consider when youre thinking of trusting someone. I would trust Stealthmode without a doubt. Damn, if I had the parts for him to weld me a manifold id send them next week. lol

Anyways to piggyback on this thread. Ive got a Craftsman wirefeed Mig welder than I havent started playing with yet. I want to get a gas tank. Only planning on doing small stuff, ie charge piping, exhaust etc. Is a 10Cu Ft cylinder enough?

Yea thats definately to small, i suggest practicing with flux core before you waste money on the gas. Go with a 65 cu on the bottle. I have that welder to, its ok, just make sure you read the settings, youll probably always have it on "5" and "B" for most charge pipes and exhaust stuff.

I think I will get some Flux Core to start learning how to use the Mig. What thickness flux core should I go with?
