how did you cut the pie cuts? did you use an angle grinder with a cut off blade on it

yup. use the machine wire as a jig, measured .75in, marked it, then drew a line using the machine wire and a paint marker, then just cut it with an angle grinder and a 1/8th cutting disc.

i would have liked to use a 1/16th but i used up my last one.

.045" cut off wheels work a lot better, Walter disks are the best.

well the down pipe didnt fit. what a surprise.

so i had to get choppy and weldy again. ran out of wire. stupid fucking shit. anyways got it done.

and yes, the rad is going to be a challenge. hmm i foresee plenty of aluminum shrouding with a hard core gangster lean in my near future

dude that is fucking gangster

just fit

dvst8r · « **Reply #35 on:** May 11, 2009, 10:31:41 AM »

Might want to wrap the first couple inch's of the down pipe, well actually if it is going to get as close to the rad as you think, maybe wrap it till it is past that point.

i hope such a large diameter pipe wont make your car sound gay, that is a pretty frickin huge pipe. but it might sound gangsta as fuck. hope you post some vids once its up and running

danz · « **Reply #37 on:** May 16, 2009, 02:11:07 AM »

the gayer the better.

Gay? I love the sound of turbines in the morning! I'd just put a short resonator on the bitch and call it a good day.

startup vid, once i got a decent basemap on there

the tranny seems to tick with rpm. perhaps the lsd? never had one before so i dunno. isb is good tho.

Start up 2

pretty tight fit

mfactory, and yes. (i let the clutch out at about 16 seconds into the vid)

danz · « **Reply #42 on:** May 21, 2009, 02:13:05 AM »

sound seems to have vanished once i put wheels on the car and put it on the ground.... must have been the lsd.

isb

input shaft had no play and when i disassembled the trans the isb was perfect. to the point that i didnt replace it, just the input shaft seal.

if i didnt know the condition of the tranny i would agree 100% tho.

thanks indian. ill love it more when it doesnt randomly stall and kill the battery trying to get it started again. lewl.

danz · « **Reply #45 on:** May 25, 2009, 01:16:58 AM »

BigGameHit · « **Reply #52 on:** July 07, 2009, 09:32:28 PM »

thats good work man, much respect...

ps have you managed to set the grass on fire yet lol, i have.

97Econobox · « **Reply #53 on:** July 08, 2009, 09:57:49 AM »

I think a better question is why 4" allllllll the way down to a 2.5 inch? Do you drop the exhaust at the trck or something?

SirDragsAlot · « **Reply #54 on:** July 08, 2009, 11:12:38 PM »

at least the monster pipe will help heat up the oil on those cold days. im doing 3 inch stainless all the way with no muffler and a hollowed out cat. i paid 147 dollars for ten feet of 3 inch 16 gauge pipe. i will be doing pie cuts as well, all tig welded.

that was the plan but the fucking whore is so loud it makes tuning impossible.

i think im gonna drop it on the dyno and get tuned without it, then drop it at the track for the rest of the season. all depends...

i want to go 4 inch the whole way if i get the time/energy/tube

if i could do it again id go 3 inch, just that much easier and cheaper

lol i can get that shit for 60 a 10ft stick in 13ga, you got owned

i got a good 20 some feet of stainless 3" for 20 dollars a couple years back ive been saving. you both got owned! being friends to the suprivisor of a scrap yard has its upside.
