Re:Downpipes...

Stainless works great for down pipes. Best bet is to weld it with a TIG welder.

Re:Downpipes...

OK cool cause I didnt know if it would hold up. I got a good deal 4 bucks and it has 2 90* bends and a straight section.

How should I go about attaching this to the rest of my exhaust which is not yet made. 3" felx pipe? arent those expensive..

Re:Downpipes...

I bought some 3 bolt flanges and welded one to each end of the pipe and then bolted them together. Works great. :)
