So Far So Good On Custom X-pipe
So Far So Good On Custom X-pipe I Made This From Complete Scrap Pipes And Bends I Had Left Over From My Buddies Exhaust. The X Was A Bitch! Its Not Fully Welded Cuz The Welder Ran Outa Gas. Im Doin True Dual Over Both Sides Of The Axle. Already Modded And Strengthened The Upper Panhard Bar For Clearence. And It Sits Very Tucked I Will Provide More Pics As Time Goes On.. This Part Took Me About 2.5 Hours To Make Fit Perfect And Tack Weld In Place!! What Do Ya Think?!
Thanks! 3" Aluminized Steel I Cant Decide If I Want The Bullet Muffler Right After The X Or Uder The Hatch Area. Any Suggestions? Oh and of course it will all be painted high temp flat black.
Well as usual i changed my mind. The whole over the driver axle thing wasn't working out so i modded the x pipe. Heres the new x-pipe. The rest should be done by tues. when its done imma post everything up. gotta wait for more argon gas we ran out at the shop..will keep people posted

Verdad Gallardo Yea I noticed that too after all was said and done. I measured the merge its @ 3 1/4" so still should get the job done I figure. When you look at it from one inlet its about 75% straight shot through the cross section. I mean with the right equipment im sure i could have made it better. All that is, is sawzall and mig welder. I will finish the over the axle part this monday or tuesday so ill post the rest up soon
no my car is very low to the ground and i I couldnt make up for the axle not hitting the exhaust compared to staying away from the brake lines and harness. Not enough room to work with on the driver side so im just doin the 2 3" pipes over one side and ill have enough clearence for everything. I tried! damn slammed car
well here they are! the exhaust is 95% complete i still have to adjust the tips to angle a little more downward and away from the bumper. But everything clears just fine it may look like it sits low but my car is very very low to the ground so the 4.5 inch clearance i have is just fine. even with the car on the rack the torque arm clears as well as the driveshaft. Im happy with it just a few tweeks left! Not bad for a rookie welder with extra pipe layin around..
