So i took the patterns i made, cut them out, wrapped them around the pipe (1 1/2 sch 10 304SS) took them to a bandsaw, then a massive belt sander, tacked them all together with a mig (309SS wire) and here is the result. I also drilled and tapped my 1/2 T3 Flange (will be studded)

it's warped about 1/32, i don't know why it looks so bowed, But, i made it out of 1/2 304SS, so i can just mill it flat once it's all welded. |

![]() This picture shows it a little better... I may have boost creep at lower boost levels... I plan on running a 38MM WG, but i am running 20 psi... I may use a larger pipe and neck it down so that in case it creeps, I can purchase a 44mm and just weld on a new flange... |

weld what's visible, cut runners off the collector and flange. weld runners on bench. weld pipes back on. All whilst backpurging with argon. |

Are you planning to tig weld those pipes? From the pic it looks like you tacked it all with a mig. There is also product named por 15 used to fix rust. It is a little expensive but many car builders recommend it. I don't know if you answerd this question already, but are you going to weld in those patch panels or just leave them tacked in? I suggest that you use some weld through primer for corrosion protection on the bare metal. I think the project looks great, keep up the good work.

I used a comparable product to por15, there are a few pics of it about a page back. I am only leaving the panels tacked in, because the car is getting a 10+ point cage that ties to the main frame in 6 locations and to all 4 strut towers. I will seam fill them to prevent any water intrusion. |
