I've been wanting to upgrade my exhaust for a while. I also wanted to get more practice on my welding skills. My original plan was to replace all the 2-bolt flanges on my existing exhaust with v-bands. Then I figured I might as well make a whole new exhaust. Then I figured if I was going to make a whole new exhaust, I might as well make something unique and challenging. All this leads to a 4" exhaust.
Started with a bunch of boxes of things. All stainless:
Size comparison of 3" vs 4":
Got started on the downpipe. These flex joints suck to weld:
Butt weld:
Took a while for me to get the angles on the downpipe correct. This was version 2, still needed some modification before the final version.
Did start gettting some nice results on the v-bands:
