My custom 2.5" downpipe.... Diy :)

[mark1991]

I was removing my turbo kit last week only to notice after 2 years that the zisco down pipe was only a 2" lol. So i thought 2.5" would be alot better!

So i cut my own cut and sourced my own flanges and lambda thread from an old ct9 Downpipe, and bought 2 90* elbows from ebay costing less that £25.

I made a jig with my zisco down pipe and welded it up, I am happy to say i test fitted it tonight and fits spot on

I am aiming for more power and torque and will be fitting a zisco inlet... and more boost

400 here we go.... i hope

Massive respect for that, it's something I would love to try. What kind of welder did you use and how experienced are you out of wonder?

I really like to see people making a car there own using initiative and making things rather than buying them.

Keep at it, it looks good!

TIG welder mate, I am a welder and fabricator by trade. I would love to make make everything for my car but no pipe bender at work and no plazma cutters so

its hard to make everything i was going to make a alloy inlet but time at work to do it... wont happen so bought one instead.

Cheers lads
