uh . . .
its 1800 degree shitty high temp in a can paint. I was planning on ceramic coating it but the local coating place decided to hike the price by 50% from the time i called to the time i showed up and kinda pissed me off
i know its not going to hold up, and i knows its going to flake off rather quickly, but this is an uber budget build and im running outta funds so you gotta do what you gotta do. i purposefully made it so very little has to be removed to get the crossover out the bottom (1 cold side pipe and unclamp the down pipe). i just found out today that a local place has a killer deal on DEI heat wrap so i will probably wrap it in the very near future, but what little money i have left is going to finishing it. details will trickle in down the line
edit:
btw, i cant take credit for the welding. i did the cutting and measuring and fitting and everything then brought it to a friend to have it welded. if fact the only portions of the welds you can still see are the remnants of my ugly tack welds that held it together

i mean no hatin, but last time i spoke "T3" was with my 67mm turbo civic...!!!
on the reals tho, youl want 2&1/4 off each header runnin to your turbo with a legit 2-1 goin into the t3 flange. If you have a legit t3 flanged hotside turbo that ****** is gonna spool damn near off idle.
