Forgot uploading to YouTube is so easy.
Shame you can't embed it though.

Time to make a bad ass down pipe/exhaust.
Vibrant 304SS 4"
Oval to fit past the starter and tuck up under the car so it doesn't scrape.

Sounds pretty beastly.

How much was that exhaust stuff?

[Dirk HX35]

How much was that exhaust stuff?

The 4" vbands were $80 a piece.
Round to oval reducer $70, I need to order another one to make a round pie cut tip.
Oval piping was $244 for 8' but the seller gave me 11' since he didn't have a full 8' piece in stock so I made out.
I would like to maybe add a set of flanges before the subframe which is $120 for a set. A bunch of 1/2" stainless rod was $20 for hangers.

An oval exhaust, what a great idea to help with clearance.

Down pipe is all tacked together, supposed to be 60° tomorrow so I'll weld it all up. Need to have my brother ceramic coat the turbo and down pipe.

That looks like quite a tight fit for the DP! Can't wait to see this monster shredding tires!

That is a beautiful sight to behold, that's a ton of firepower

[Dirk HX35]

Thanks guys.
Picked up my supplies to paint the mtech 2 to match.
Diff should be back from Thayer motorsports soon and I'll order my driveshaft then.
Feels good to see the car wrapping up.

I never post about my e28, but it's finally starting to come together.
Got an eBay pfeba lip for my euro bumper and condor Speedshop control arm bushings to fix the slop. Sent out my bbs rc041 faces to be machined for 3 piece sandwich mount and ordered 3" and 3.5" lips for them and cut the old barrels to reuse them.

<3 e28. Love the big little headlights too!

[Gertech]

Is the ebay pfeba lip from the guys in Slovakia? Classiceuroparts or something? I was looking at their stuff for my e28, just wasn't sure how well they're made. Thanks.
