Making My Own Exhaust...

[FelixTRX]

Hey all,

I'm making a full 3" exhaust for our Stagea and was wondering how many 180deg mandrel bends and straight pipe other people have used?

I'm doing it out of ally coated mild steel (I don't bother with stainless - personal preference), and starting with a new dump pipe (either split type or bell mouth).

No arguments with the whole mild vs stainless, just need to know material demands!

Cheers, Greg.

from memory, you'll need straight pipe only...The stagea exhaust system is fairly straight and has minimal to no bends at all.

what other parts of the exhaust do you have

I'm considering doing this myself...do you have any other parts other than the dump pipe

a picture tells a thousand words they say. i am not sure if that helps or not.

ps. mild steel sounds the best anyway.

it has changed a bit from what went on originally. the rear muffler is an X-force twin exit thing as it was cheap (ie 2nd hand and stealthy). the cat was changed to a 5" bodied catco.

the rest was made up by a local exhaust shop but later modified by richard (in the pic from uniqueautosports former brad jones racing guy i believe) due to the exhaust hanging too low.

so its a bitza.
