"Stick" welding? Or is it TIG welding? Or did you braze it?

Arc/stick welding.

You used tha cast elbows/tees that mate to black iron pipe?I'll bet it'd hold the boost for a while, but it's not going to like holding the turbo's weight. I'd say you make yourself some support brackets and run with it. I'd like to see how it works out. Please?

so could you use an ARC welder to make a manifold? I'm not talking from home depot; I mean like the one that Beau made.
