Someone wanted a picture. This is a pie cut welded custom DP. The reason for pie cutting is because I couldn't get the right angle. May be if you buy 3" donut, it will be easier, but donuts aren't cheap.
I used a regular steel U-J shaped mandrel bent tubing and it was more than enough.
Alternator is getting on the back of the motor,cause right now the DP is simply killing it, regardless of the fact, that is wrapped. Already bought relocation kit.
What radius bend did you use? The shortest radius 3" bend ive seen was around 4", IIRC. The tighter the radius, the less you will have to pie cut it to clear the alt.
The last downpipe that i made for my car i just made my own relocation setup. If you can build your own exhuast, you can make your own relocation setup. t is fairly easy to make if you have a welder. Would have been easier to test fit everything without the head on the car, but it still wasnt too bad. Ill be changing my tensioner setup though because im not completely satisfied with that yet. I can take some pics after i get around to pulling my head if anybody is interested. The only pic i have now is of my fpr and my alt just happends to be in it.
