brent how much psi are you running??? there will be no housing breaking here mister. grrr argggg

hey nice work tom,Great to see the progress. Keep at the welding mate,90% of welding is the prep,if you have big gaps,grease,oil and sticking tips etc then your welds arnt going to turn out nice.Do what Ian says,get some scrap steel and practice.Welding exh tubing is more of a advanced stage in welding.Im sure you would have blown holes in the pipes when welding them.If you are welding 2 pipes together use gravity to help you,dont weld straight on top of the join (gravity will pull the weld inside the pipe/tube and blow holes if your not careful) but try to get the joint standing up and pool the weld along it taking your time to stop and weld the opposite to counteract the expansion/contraction of metals when hot.

I have a picture of a TurboXS turbo apart and the center section is indeed glued together, I will have to dig it up.

 

[Untouchable7mgte]

no need sparks everyone and there pet fluffy knows about those turbo housing. old design just like the old SSA mani hitting the oil filter housing they fixed it. Supraboostin indeed it was your idea that made me do that. mines just coated black.hehe. Miggles thanks for the helpful advice i did notice welding the sides were alot easier and coming out alot better other than when i was weldind directly on top. Thanks for all the post ill have more updates when i get new parts in.

Maybe Blahman has a build he'd like to share so we don't think he's just some troll?

So why are you here and not on a Honda forum?

 

[Blahman2]

There are honda forums? My car doesn't have vteck, but I have nos, an short ram intake, a eiback turbo setup, 4-2-1 headers and a greddy waste gate. I will school you're turbo surpas. vteck is for losers who have no balls.

Well you've just demonstrated that you're a troll I'm just trying to work out why you're bothering us?
