Need some help/ advice
I have been searching for a 12-14 inch , 2.5in inlet, stainless steel, weld on exhaust tip, with a turn down design. Turns out my little 9 inch borla tip won't cut the mustard. I have also been thinking about doin just a straight pipe that goes straight back... Any suggestions from the bastards?

Have you tried checking with automotive exhaust shops or O'Reillys / AutoZone? Might be worth lookin into.
ReplyDeleteyeah been lookin all over the place to no avail. found one online thAT WAS only chrome plated steel and that won't last i'm pretty sure. . . probly why it was half the price!!
ReplyDeleteIs the rest of the header stainless? Welding mild and stainless can be tricky from what I hear. If the header is mild, just use a mild turnout tip and wrap the whole pipe, use high temp paint, or both. DEI makes great products for exhaust paint and wrap.
ReplyDeleteyeah the header is stainless thats why its harder to find. . . have found some straight back ones but not really wanting to give up on the turn-out just yet
ReplyDeleteI have a old school fin, so not much here, or buy a piece of 304 with a 90 degree bend in it and slash cut it.
