Merge functionality Hey guys, I'm workin on my hot side and fabbed up this merge. From here it'll go into a 2.5 elbow and into the turbo (t4 flange). What do you guys think? The joint is actually more centered, the pipe is tilted on the floor.

I'm wondering the same thing. I've seen guys that stick welded together crimp-bent piping and used old fence posts as crossovers. If the exhaust flows through it and doesn't leak... its good to go.

No problems with the fit, nice work. My only suggestion would be that they say you should have a reasonable amount of straight section before it actually enters the turbo. When its coming out of a turn and right into the turbo, there is a lot of turbulence, so you don't get as good a "push" on the impeller. Sometimes that's just not an option though. Here's how I did mine, but again, its not always an option depending on space and location.
