Re: Project Lex

Little bit of progress. So the exhaust plan is 3" downpipe going to dual 2.5" in the rear. Got the downpipe tacked up with the Marmon Flange that mates to this turbo. Fits like a champ!



Grabbed a section of the Talon's old exhaust to start cutting it up to make the rest of the 3" portion. Grabbed a 3" flange and gasket from MAP, thanks again guys!



Here's the only piece I managed to get done tonight, but I'm glad I got it done because I suck at fabbing and I thought getting this angle just right was going to be a biatch. Took me a couple cuts and test fits to get the angle just right.
Gettin that angle juuuuust right

Done, just need to get it welded up!





And found an old 2.5" SS Upper IC pipe from the talon that had SS bends. So I cut those off and those are added to the pile of 2.5" random SS bends to use for the 2.5" portions. They're still powdercoated, maybe I'll leave em and see how long until it burns off



Huge thanks to Momin (Speedfreak) for taking the time to weld this up for me, and Aaron for lending the equipment!
