Re: Manifolds for 100 shipped?

well, it turned out like ---- but I'll post pics anyway. I painted it already, not like it helps much, but whatever. My main problem was coping out the tees instead of just buying some. Anyway, I've found a cnc shop to cut the flanges for me cheaply so the quiality will improve alot once I get the flanges made (1-2weeks). This was mainly to see if I could make one without warping the ---- out of it, which I did, BUT as FOOK said, it was hella waste of time just to make one and the fitment isn't near as good as it could be when I get the flanges made and some actual tees instead of cobbling some together. Still, I'm 100% positive the welds on this bastard are strong enough. So... you guys were right, but I'm not done yet!

I DIDN'T CLEAN IT UP BEFORE PAINTING, i just threw a coat on there which in hidsight made it look more like ass.

and if people start saying they want a/c compatible this and external gate that the price is going to jump, materials for these things are expensive.

Also, does anyone know where I can find a g-code tutorial and something to write programs? :D

Maybe for him they are, but in general, mild steel is not more expensive material wise then stainless. Its about half the price.

Re: Manifolds for 100 shipped?

yeah i dont see how mild steel could cost more than stainless. if the price went up for mild then stainless would be a buttload. i think the quality is good for being 100 bucks. cant expect much. good stuff ;D

Re: Manifolds for 100 shipped?

Re: Manifolds for 100 shipped?

Hell for a 100 shipped and that manifold don't look bad. Looks like something that'd be on the Terminator's car. All straight cut and no frills. 8)
