As a welder fabricator, I'd love to see a follow up on how the exhaust holds up over time, instead of back purging too you can use solar flux next time for when you don't want to use the extra argon, the welds become more brittle when you don't back purge too it's not just about the aesthetic and its tendency for rusting quicker, it's worth doing at least a backing plate or something, love what you guys are doing!

Should’ve mentioned that cleaning your parts with brake parts cleaner can be extremely dangerous. If your brake cleaner contains tetrachloroethylene, you can expose yourself to an extremely poisonous gas when welding. A lot of the “50 state” brake parts cleaner no longer contains this chemical, they use acetone instead. But always check, and it’s honestly safer to use acetone by itself.
@rodanone48953 жыл бұрын
one hundred and ten percent!!! acetone. and be careful with the acetone. some have oils and grease remnants emulsified when you buy it. apparently there is reagent grade acetone where this ingredient is controlled. but i can't find it. i start with acetone. then scrub again with a dry cloth. the danger them becomes lint... shop vac. then weld. tom eager from MIT has an amazing series on KZbin for welding metallurgy, fusion welding etc .. but, the algorithm is unlikely to recommend it. he talks often of welding cleanliness even with low carbon steel.

Very underrated comment. To a newer welder, they may not notice. But if you do the different grinds back to back, you can really see the difference. It’s why you want a large angle (60* point) for thin metal, vs a shallow angle (15* point) for thicker metals. The large angle allows you to have a more focused arc, where the heat affected zone isn’t trying to melt a larger area of the metal.

I’ve welded for 12 years. Everything from pressure vessel stainless to aerospace stainless, Inconel, aluminum and titanium. .016” all the way up to 1” thickness. I’m a welding instructor at one of the oldest welding schools in the country. Give me a week in your shop and I’ll have all of you welding like champs. 😂 the welds are pretty good, all an exhaust does is move air anyway. 🤷🏻♂️😂 also, I like the mini pie cuts to bend the exhaust. Classy way to do the soft bends.

As a person that does custom exhaust using a pipe bender, this was definitely very very hard to do, and it looks amazing! Great job with cuts and welding, and the angles were super pristine!
@auteurfiddler87062 жыл бұрын
I don't understand why they don't use a pipe bender. Of course, most home garages don't have one or even know a shop that has one. But isn't that the only efficient way to do it?

@@KC-lg8qf Well, mandrel bent is supposed to be better than crimp bent, or whatever it is called. And bigger tubes are supposed to be better as are more free flowing mufflers which tend to be noisier. By better, I mean a tiny percentage better at wide open throttle at 5000 plus rpm. OK, so it is 1978, I have a 72 Road Runner GTX 440 with true dual exhaust. Some turkey had his mom's 66 Coronet sedan. With a wheezy 318. He puts on glass packs, ladder bars, and bunch of free decals from the hot rod store. He is "compensating", as we would call it now. That is all loud mufflers are to me. "Compensating."

Can confirm, diy exhaust can be decent with some trial and error. I had my 2008 honda fit straight piped from the cat for a while but recently put in a 2.5" inlet to 4" outlet 18" long muffler tip from evil energy on amazon and now my car has a nice deep tone.

I remember that back in the day, my exhaust on my old VW got rusted. So my friends recommended me a guy that does everything on his own... Decided to give it a go... And really, literally, the guy did it from 0 right before my eyes! He just had a bunch of steel pipes he was bending according to measures! As for mufflers (I believe that is how you call them), he just had a bunch of flat tin sheet. And he did the same; measured them up, cut them, bent them and welded as well as putting some isolator material or whatever inside! Then put it all together, welded it and installed... And it worked just fine! That was 6-7 years ago in a 1991 VW Polo! 2-3 years ago I sold the car. The dude who bought it is still driving it with the same exhaust! My current car is a 2004 Citroen C2 and it has chrome lined exhaust in very good condition, so I hope it will last a bit longer...

Some advice for the future. Take the entire length of tubing, measure to the first bend, cut your 4°, weld it back together, measure to the next spot and repeat. Then at each bend, you only Weld one seam rather then 3.

Thank fudge someone actually said this! This is how we do it at work. It's proabably 70% faster, your putting less heat heat into the material, your not making multiple cuts so there's less room for error. Also why have it on foot pedal why not just have an auto push button start on the torch? You're reducing variables which makes the job cleaner again.

Am in the middle of making my own custom dual exhaust on my Audi B5. Seeing this video goes to show how badly I need an angle finder, lol. I had to cut the straight pipe that a previous owner had slapped on, and replaced both cats with a pair of amazon units, got 2 sections of straight pipe, a portaband, and I've had a flux core welder for 2 years almost. It's coming along pretty well, I think. I didn't believe that butt welding would be as tricky as it is, but I've made do. The .035" wire seems to fill the oddball gaps, and it's all very solid. I'd like to do a TIG welded exhaust with all the back purging, but I don't have that kind of money right now. I'm making this exhaust for roughly $225. It's been a pleasant experience, and I find I enjoy doing all the prep work that goes into it. It's all been quite therapeutic and peaceful, minus dropping bits of dirt and road grime in my eyes while under the car, lol. Thanks again for the informative watch, your bimmer sounds sweet asf

Stainless tech tip...tac it, continue this way. Then make a controlled leak of argon inside the pipe... Stainless makes crystals. Then can break. So sealing one end with argon supply to then making a very small leak on the otherside will did the pipe, stop crystals. And maybe save your turbo if your fabbing the induction.... Behind the downpipe it's not as critical, but it's good practice

@Superluminal: You are correct! "The sale and installation of an aftermarket exhaust system remains legal in California so long as it does not exceed a sound level of 95-decibels when tested under SAE J1492 and complies with all other exhaust and safety laws and regulations." In other words, the stock exhaust was already illegal and this aftermarket mod is unequivocally law breaking territory.
