Questions to save $$
 
1. Can I use an arch welder for my exaust set up? Im gonna weld 2.5 SS piping. Someone told me the arch welds would crack because of exhaust temps.
2. How effecient are Whitey bends?
3. How well would hightemp silicone work as gaskets for my T25 D16a6 crx si set up?
4. apparently I have a different T25 exhaust housing on my T25 turbo, so the wastegate arm dosent meet where its supposed to attach. I might just tap new holes but ive never done this so I dont know... Also I thought about bending the wastegate arm. could I test it by using a compresser to blow air in the wastegate and watch it push out?
5. any tips about buildng a CHEAP T25 downpipe?
6. To run 450 DSMs on a CRX si, having the resistor box for the normal honda do I need the one from the DSM?

Thats all for now,

4. you can bend the arm if you have to
5. get a flange and make one yourself
