This is for an STS kit and I'm having some exhaust leaks now as I'm trying to finish up for my tune :bang: !
I can tell that it's leaking at the over-the-axle connection and it's really leaking at the flange...see pic. It's where the I-pipe connects to the pipe that goes into the exhaust housing. I don't see any condensation coming from the Y-pipe/I-pipe connection, but it very well could be and I can't see it. As you know, it's really important not to have any leaks as it will kill my spool time.
Would it be ok for me to drive it to a muffler shop and have them weld up a couple spots while the turbo is on the car? I don't want any metal to get into the exhust piping and thus going into the turbo. So, that's the big question...can it be welded on the car without hurting the turbo? Thanks fellas.
