Still hAve to finish weld everything....had to remove and redo number 4 as it was hitting my compressor cover. Overall im happy with my first go....

wow nice work man ! damn noticed your from ct aswell !

Constructive criticism, should have run the center 2 ports to the front of the collector. Would be less snaking around and equaler length.

where did you get you piping from? and also are they equal length runners?

Archer Fabrications · Nov 18, 2017

Want a couple pointers?

1.Bevel every joint.
2. i personally try to stay away from tight radius 90's at all costs when ever possible. They are about twice the cost of a long radius, nothing really wrong with it other then that
And it's a sharper turn for exhaust.

Looks good though for a first try

I tryed to bevel the staight sections with my grinder....i hear they sell a tool to bevel. Pipe more effectively

Treadstone performance..... they arent perfectly equal but close enough imo

The collector and manifold flange is jmfab, everything else was just piping through them and other sources cut to fit

I would disagree man. Both 1&4 are 2x the length and volume of runners 3&4

A belt sander or an angle grinder with flap wheel works fine no need To get fancy on bevel tools when youve only Made one manifold... i dont even have fancy tools For that cause it's a waste of money.... Is there any reason jmf sold you all tight radius? And how much did they cost? You can get long radius from one of our vendors ace race for 6.50ish I believe. tight radius are usually 14 each off the top of my head

Your straights dont look beveled at all.

If you look at the joint u can see some material i took off... i gave up as i could get an even bevel..instead Just left a small space + or minus the size of the filller rod. I did a sample piece and pulsed the pedal. I got good penetration considering its sch 40. Do you really get 100% penetration on your manifolds?

SasaniFab · Nov 19, 2017

Couldnt*.... Like I said, this was just practice, everything was purged and got good penetration. All manifolds ive seen appeat to be fusin welds and are not completely penetrated through the parent material.

Oh no, i got those tight from a seperate website. They were cheap actually....7-8 bucks a piece. I purchased this at the ass end of my build... the saw and jig that is. The next manifold i plan on taking my time and designing something

If u look that the picture with the turbo hanging off you can see what im talking about, I removed material off of most most of the straight sections.
