6" steel pipe?
 
Looking for 4"-6" steel pipe. I want to make my own n1 style (not replica) muffler for my turbo project. I'm gonna use 3" inside, split it to punch holes/dimple then reweld it. Then make end caps. From dp back will be 3". I'm kinda a novice/amteur at welding. I just wanna make some things that I'll actually use. I already made a catch can and modified eg rails to put del sol seats in my 88. Can't be too thin though, I'm using a small 110 mig

It's so much easier to just buy a used muffler on ebay. yeah I'm all about fabrication of my own ----, but I also do things the smart way.

I Have the cash to go buy new, I just wanna make something myself. I have ~7g's tied up in the car so far (80% of that money is motor and management). The only things that remained the same are crank, & trans. Everything else has been replaced/ upgraded.

if you have that much into the car, why throw on something ghetto like a homemade muffler?

buy a 3" glasspack, lop it in half, flip one side over parallel to the other, weld a "loop" tothe inlet/outlets, boom n1 style muffler.

I'm making the assumtion that noone could pull that kind of pipe out of their collection. I'm kinda looking to be pointed in the direction of a company that sells that size.

Cause it's something I made not just went out and bought, yet simple enough that I SHOULD not screw it up terribly.

just pick up the glass pack, it will probably be cheaper then the materials to build your HM muffler

Ravage70 05-25-2004 06:57 PM

Re:6" steel pipe?
 
---- a muffler
use a tip

slowcivic 05-25-2004 06:59 PM

Re:6" steel pipe?
 
---- a tip just run a pipe straight out the side.

Doofnoil 05-25-2004 07:03 PM

Re:6" steel pipe?
 
---- the side just run it into the passenger compartment.

LOL funny ----.. I was probably going to say somesthing like that.

BLAM just take off the headers and run the gasses right out of the head, I've rode like that before.

There are so many other great chefs aside from Emeril, he's just very popular.. add some essence of garlic, kick it up a notch BAM!

Your choice of pic servers sucks as well. Try pix8.net

Well, enough bs, I gotta get out here. Got a quick drop in power (storming). Some day in the future I'll post more pics (w/ a better camera), still a lot of work to do.

"INLET TIP : 2.5" ( IN DIAMETER)" I refuse to run 3" just to throw a 2.5 on the end.

You getting any of this rain? I guess it helps cool the hot days between though.

Re:6" steel pipe?
 
that's an n1 muffler?! Ithought a n1 muffler was where the exhaust exits on side then flipps back around and goes through the muffler again... anyone know what I'm talking about?
