The fabrication thread.

[ultimateforce]

I just re-read my post and I will clarify. Machine down a solid round bar of aluminum so that the wg flange fits snuggly on it. I have to tap mine with a piece of wood. Thread that round piece so that it screws on to a bolt tack welded to some piece of scrap steel.

Boom, spinning wastegate jig. Deal with it.

Anyone know a good place that can make a tube subframe for a motorcycle? SoCal 92704 area.

Haven't had warping issues not clamping it down?

On bigger V-bands YES, on a wastegate dump tube nah.

Beautiful!
What size pipe did you use?

1.25", it matches the RB port size very well.

Slowly getting there with the rear end.

Working on vband inlet for 6266. Looking to produce about 600ish on e85 around 32-34psi

Should have manifold done this weekend since i finally got my welder wired up at my new shop.

[ka-titties]

what method do you use for producing merge collectors?

[JaysPerformance]

I have the luxury of having Verocious Motorsports 10 minutes from my shop. So that one I just bought. But I had purchased all the piping and bends prior to buying a JET band saw. I need to build a jig for the band saw and then I will be making the collectors myself.

Collector building I'll be cutting the pipe at 11*angle then rotating 90* for the second cut to make one repeat 3 more times. Honda tech had a nice write up of collector cutting.

I have 2 more of these to build as well as 2 gsr manifolds in the next few weeks.

yeah, i've seen that write up. i was just curious if you did them because they look so nice. i'm doing similar to the HT write up and i made a clamp at 11* and bolted it down to my chop saw. the cut just isnt very nice, or consistent.

Tube front built in my driveway. It's not professional but it works





Working on control arms right now

Once I make the jig for the bandsaw I'll post up picks. Just moving in my shop and trying to get everything set up and wired in. Tire machines getting picked up I'm the morning 😁.

[91ka24]

Here is some stuff I have recently done. I'm definatly no professional fabricator, just a big diy'r.

This is my tube front on my personal car






And yesterday I tore the complete chassis harness out of a buddy's car and started making a new one from scratch. Step one is the fuse block and relays.

[tauntdevil]

What brand fuse box is that? I already have the relays but havent found a fuse box setup I like yet. That one looks pretty simple and clean.

[91ka24]

It's one from a local electrical distributor. They carry them with either 6 or 12 fuses, and also have them with a grounding block. This one is just 12 with no grounding block. If you would like I could ship you one.

A lot of very inspirational work here.. Heres some stuff I did, well actually the whole car.. haha

[shiftdrift]

built one of dem der Honda downpipes. came from ebay of course.

[blockedwizard]

Looking good shift

[feito]

dammn, the manifolds in this page....
Simple stuff i built.

[shiftdrift]

Nice job on the brace.

[str33tpr3p]

hey got a quick question about merge collectors if anyone can help me out. Building a 4-1 merger collector but need to make a rectangular opening for a t4 flange. What are the angles that you have to cut the pipe to to have this shape over a t3 circle opening.
Thanks!

PM please

[ultimateforce]

I cut mine like this.

[feito]

there u go, cut from scratch, get your grinder and dremel lol, baller stff

[str33tpr3p]

lead by example hahah

or better yet what angles do you guys use for twin scroll so just for putting 2 together
