935 Exhaust Welded and mounted

[souprat]

yeah. i got the same exhaust a few weeks ago(different muffler). doesnt even come close to hanging that low. tucks up there nicely. that said i cant take credit for the welding though. i'm with aye mate. try rotating the 2 90 degrees so the muffler is closer to the gas tank. i would like to post a pic but unfortunatly i dont have one.

its not the pipes. second trys the charm right?

omg thats why it didnt come out right!!! take that long peice and flip it the other way thats what i did... looks like i have to cut the flanges off and re weld everything.. oh well thanks for the post 935motorsports..

Can you put that picture up on ur website for future people dont mess it up like i did


*edit yea im happy with the pipes.. they seem nice and big.. it sounds nice on the car i cant wait to finish getting it right.. been a crazy week with moving into a new apartment and last weekand was easter

here is a quick side question... how much hp is lost by having the silencer on a car? i have no cats and 3inch from turbo to muffler... megan n1 muffler...

with the silencer on it sounds quiet but nice still


thanks again 935 i am soo excited to get the exhaust right now.. cant wait till this weekand

 

[bigal0043]

sorry for all the questions but i just thought of another one... on the muffler it is polished i believe and im going to have to grind that hanger off what is the best way to polish it back so it dosent look diff?

 

[supra90turbo]

with some fine grit sandpaper and some polishing compound.


sorry, but LMFAO!!!

mine was the same way, previous owner used coat hanger as a "hanger" for the exhaust. I would hit a bump it would unbend and the exhaust would fall off mid turn and i woul shoot sparks across the road as i finish making my turn through the intersections..

was cool

Don't sweat it man, at least it sounds good it'll all get sorted out soon, not a big fix at all IMO. Yank that silencer out btw

someone has an oversized asshole..

 

[bigal0043]

wtf is this place coming to? that link for your information is my friends company that i am promoting.. lagged don't jump to conclusions.. this is my first exhaust..

i am loosing a little respect for some of you members... This is not SF this is or was a friendly place and i thought i was posting up my problem.. People run into problems all the time i dont see you guys blasting them for that! i did an honest mistake of switching one of the pipes backwards which caused it not to tuck under right.. i see people on here all the time put wires and such the wrong way...

sorry for the rant lagged post really set me off

maybe some of you should learn from this thread that maybe we shouldnt post our failures on this forum

Yea... I just don't get it. This guy makes a little mistake when putting exhaust pipes on his car (which just about anyone here could do by accident) and you shouldn't buy an exhaust from his friends company?

Glad that you got it on good. I bet if you just new that other people were putting that exhaust on with no problem you would have looked more carefully and spotted your mistake. Did you post any audio clips yet?

 

[bigal0043]

nah not yet.. i dont have anything to record it with... sounds nice though..

AL: Not everyone is born a master fabricator!

Well done on having a go at it and a tip I'd share here for everyone is to tack weld your job together and test fit it before any finish welding!

It's easy to break a few tacks to reposition parts and checking a few times will save many hours of frustration later!

 

[bigal0043]

yea i started out just tack welding it but got impatient and ran out of time...

but i went against what i always say.. take your time do it right the first time..

oh well i learned and thanks for the last couple of nice posts

I recently welded a 3 inch exhaust for one of my boys, when I get a chance and when I fiqure out how to post pics I will throw some in.. I used no bends I made the turns by cutting angles.
