Making My Exhaust Ridiculous!

[@BigKeke]

Would also love to see both wastegates recirculated into the sidepipe for all the flames 👊🏻🔥 leave her sticking out the fender like that as well, let em all know haha

[@jadajada405]

twin turbo and side pipes on each side

[@chuckh8800]

Cut it off but leave 1/2 sticking out with a nice beauty ring

[@vintageboostaircooled3415]

Yup less snags when you are wrenching

[@CreamAle]

Weld another vband and have replaceable tips. Flush or horn.

[@steve-o6060]

I'm a certified weld inspector and damn ur welds look good! From what I can see without borescore you know your stuff. Keep up great work. Love your quality

[@belcebu5907]

9:33 that is a clean ass work tho👍👍....TEAR DROP THAT PIPE ..FLUSH TO THE FENDER BRO

[@CreamAle]

Super proud of you bud. The new shop is legit, your work is legit, and your personality is great. Keep it up.

[@SumterGrams]

I've blown out multiple bellows. Solid has worked for me for many years.

[@EveryTimeCummins]

Flush Cut FTW My Dude!

[@iceman5068]

I would flush mount it definitely

[@pete7062]

When i first saw a vid with Haden, he was practicing for a weld test at a job he applied for. Look at him now.....great fab work man

[@digitald5851]

I remember that. It was gonna be a long drive iirc. Definitely glad things are working out well for ya Hayden

[@tommycusack9979]

The 90’s down will be dyno strap melters 😂

[@whambammthnkumam]

The exhaust looks sick the way it is I think. Your work looks incredible keep grinding my dude

[@pilot554]

Cut the tip a bit to follow the fender.

[@GeneFever]

Dog fight!! I like the exhaust following the fender lines. Soot marks just shows you mean business.

[@Laner84]

Bring on icecream cruise footage! Can't wait to see this thing rip! What a build!

[@sam_s_]

Who knew Kyle was hanging out with guys that do such clean work.

[@Ishliss2012]

Dude I really love your videos I’m glad your back to posting regularly!

[@SamConnaught]

Have the exhaust almost flush! And PPF the fender for the soot 🤙

[@thatdb1onelton_bloccstyle]

You & Sean from PFI are some of the best welders on the tube... I enjoy every video....

[@xozindustries7451]

The exhaust exit is cool the way it is, I hope it doesn’t rain into it 😀

[@wannabefunnyman]

1” out teardrop with the beauty ring.

[@tylerlinger9968]

Beautiful build love the fab work can’t wait to see it ripping down the track

[@fdrfab]

It's gonna be sick!

[@matejelinek5341]

make that exit flush with the fender

[@johnsimons6748]

Man the RX7 is realy legit bro, you gonna hurt some feelings on the street dude, might be great for the No Prep series 😉👍💪

[@vkwhitehead]

Would be nice to see a cross in that side exit to stop an exhaust wheel exiting if you have a failure

[@jakecrary9357]

Lol "aslowerthanu - the 'ol sandbag assassin" 🤣😂

[@nateherbst1138]

I've been doing some fabrication myself and your tips you add in the videos really help. Thanks for putting in the extra time to help people like me out!

[@marielabracamontes5955]

Man I Can’t wait to see this set up at the track, great job brother the car looks like she’s gonna be mean

[@anonymousitanimulli6086]

YOU DO SOME SICK WELDS BRO SOME OF THE BEST I'VE SEEN....

[@Todd936]

Love watching the great job you do on welding still waiting to hear about your welder?

[@TurboJohnRacing]

Dude, that thing is looking sick! Great job on building it!

[@_Eric_H_1591]

Leave the exhaust exit how it is. Work is killer. Keep it up MTig!

[@FPSRaptor]

Should have titled this video “making my exhaust retigulous”

[@madvtecyo546]

Mike Montagna hahaha

[@DashnCars]

Just bought a 2.5" 90 bend and a V band kit from FDR. Killer prices! The wagon will be good to go now!

[@El_Chompo]

I like the swoop you have for connecting your wastegates. So many people just put them on at 90 degrees and wonder why they can't control the boost.

[@sonofthor86]

I love seeing your gorgeous welds and fab work man.

[@NAW_Garage]

Leave it sticking out. Burn the haters with it. Loving the progress dude!

[@tonymattisson6158]

I like the exhaust tip as you have it. Thought you could put out the 2 downpipes under it for some cool effects. But that would be looking like 2 balls with a d... LMAO. So maybe get them into the exhaust for maximum rowdy effects on the 2-step. It's looking amazing so far! Keep up the awesome work Hayden!

[@jordantyers119]

Looks good like you have it👍 the rx7 has come a long way good job man

[@thewakz]

3rd video in a row and I will say it again, great camera work. Looking good.

[@flatlinedetonation]

Keep up the fab videos like this! Tear drop the dump and do the waste gate pipes next to it the same way.

[@mpikas]

Always a fan of your fab videos! Comments/questions: - If you can get away with a hater pipe like that out there without any hassle then leave it sticking out and keep the body clean, around here you'd get pulled over instantly if you tried to run it around the block and a lot of tracks would have a problem with it, so in that case, I'd cut it flush so it didn't draw so much attention. - Flex pipes have gotten more reliable in recent years, I used to avoid them like the plague. I typically have done one of 2 things: If it's a smaller pipe, in the 2 to 2.25 or so range, I've saved a bunch of factory GM ones from the mid '90s and up hydroformed stainless exhausts (I've never seen one of them fail), be aware that they're weird sizes like 2.1 and 2.3" because the hydroformed tubing changed sizes like that, otherwise, if I couldn't find anything in my exhaust pile I just use and overlapping, unclamped and unwelded slip joint where I would put the flex- rarely it will make a little noise on cold start-up, but as soon as it starts warming up the inside pipe expands more than the outside and seals up but still allows for some motion. - What is your back purge setup, do you have a second regulator and run some minimal pressure or do you just Y off the output of a single regulator? Maybe show it in a video? - Have you shown the collector jig that you mentioned anywhere? - do you hang out on any fab groups, forums... to get ideas?

[@baby-sharkgto4902]

Man you are building a beautiful race car. As far as the exit pipe goes I like the full elbow "bull horn" preferably on each side but that's not always feasible.

[@clydeoaks8358]

Leave it as it is. Don't have to please nobody but yourself. Excellent job

[@t1bud42]

I like the exhaust to look flush with the fender. Maybe I’m weird but I don’t like turbos and exhaust hanging out of the car.

[@Joe-nv6ge]

Excellent work! It is hard to resist the temptation to cut corners, but hard work is reflected in the final product. Just as in Your work, be it for Yourself or customers.

[@bangem3609]

You do incredible fab work I can only imagine as you get even better

[@j.finesseflights1403]

I really like the teardrop look !!

[@travspumplife]

I agree with the flush cut. Maybe a beauty trim ring around it on the fender.

[@sandersmotorsports516]

Keep up the good content I like the side exited pipe and keep pushing to get it up and running for ice cream cruise

[@chriss2217]

I like it but maybe do the same as you did for the blow off valves. The tear drop but leave it sticking out might be awesome and keep it somewhat to the fender.

[@luke_james]

13:00 gate dumps out the fender like the turbo dump so it looks kinda like a spitfire plane with all the dumps out the fender for max flameage. 🙋‍♂️🇦🇺

[@MegaJason30]

The exhaust looks nice the way it is

[@willienelson7720]

By the way your welds are amazing and I need to learn how to tig love your work keep it up

[@allxdup1909]

Lookin great Hayden... I prefer the flush with panel look for exhaust tip, but that leaves so little pipe for stable O2 signal. So either or on that one. but I reckon waste gates parallel across into turbine outlet could come out more trick looking than straight down dumps... Good luck if you have to go back & put flex in though, she's startin to get a bit tight for chopin straight 4" chunks out.. I'm sure you'll manage either way.. I'm lovin the quality finish. cheers from Aus'

[@lparker7625]

Flush cut brother! Looks awesome

[@MrEazyS10]

Love the exhaust. I like a flush look but thats me. If I was u I would just shorten the pipe about 3/4". The hot side is so sick tho. Cant wait to see the cold side

[@donhunter5.56]

You got some serious skill man. Keep it up

[@randymoore3435]

I like the flush cut just a little sticking out

[@michaelm.4063]

leave it stickin' out! looks good.. ! greetz from germany

[@michaelanderson9927]

Love the exhaust exit, I say keep it the way it is

[@yamyzf2002r1]

I like the exhaust how you have it now man. Looks serious. I'm a fan of dumping the gates next to the exhaust too. Have you considered adding a silicone coupler with t bolt clamps? That would give you the little bit of flex you'd need and wouldn't be an issue with boost yet. No room on the shorter hotside pipe though..

[@BassManBobBassCovers]

I like the exhaust the way it is because almost no soot and you get a bit of extra thrust when it's pointed towards the rear.

[@jascal8437]

love the fabrication tips on these videos!

[@Brandon-sv6vr]

I like the bend. And seeing it the way it is. The gates could nicely cross over that way and go into the exhaust and out of that same hole.

[@RuthlessGee]

lets be honest dude you teach people alot of stuff with these vids already your good at what you do.

[@jcnpresser]

It’s sucks to suck! My new favorite phrase.

[@antprice2012]

I like the way it looks just like it is

[@chrisbunting6022]

Cut it flush or half inch out level to the body lines, looks sweet as, great work mate.

[@subiedoo5433]

So I’ve watched a few videos from when it had twins, and I’ve watched every video since the new build! I can’t wait to see this thing rip dude! @metigulous

[@SteveLowe65]

Car's black, wouldn't worry too much about soot. I like wastegates dumped into the exhaust. Also, since Raceweek is on my mind, and I think you talked about doing it next year, maybe think about an option to dump all the exhaust behind the passenger compartment for the long drives? Bigass removable sidepipe maybe? Great job man, looks outstanding!

[@bradcross2]

awesome work hayden

[@thxman1968]

I think the exhaust exit is a win 👍

[@alanloyd7164]

Cool that youre using legit industrial process grade piping and triclamps. I do electrical design for a shop that does process piping systems for pharmaceutical, semiconductorand other nasty solvent distribution facilities so i appreciate some quality pipe 👌

[@420A11DAY420]

Love the longer videos. Keep up the good work!

[@El_Chompo]

I prefer the flush cut exit myself but it doesn't look bad at all sticking out like you have it. I would love to see one of those baffles that you can put inside and take out of the end to cut down on the noise when you're just cruising and not racing, the same way they do with desert racing buggies.

[@travisreising3972]

I like it how it is looks really cool

[@that95guy73]

Leave it how it is bro looks sick 🤙🏼

[@paullmight42]

your work is always impeccable...is it a good idea to weld the insides of the vbands? for flow purposes?

[@pkuudsk9927]

Just a thought ? There is some way to mount the turbo on a rubber mount so it is solid but moves just enough to cancel out the vibs that cause the cracking of welds . Fist thought is a hockey puck , or a hinge. Anyway think about it You will come up with something your a smart kid. I am enjoying watching this build we didn't have all the shit you guys have today when I was your age.

[@carlbenz3341]

the crossover expands in all directions, thats why it would be good to have something to compensate for that.

[@shanewright6958]

It's looking good. Another great video 👍👍🇨🇱

[@jerryfw]

Clean af good job

[@wickedrc7492]

Leave it how you got it bud! looks great!

[@codymeyer5262]

Flush cut🔥👀

[@wheeln24-79]

You've also gotta think about body flex. Even hitting bumps might cause things flex in a rigid exhaust. Hopefully things move together

[@justforkiks29]

Flush to the fender 👍

[@lastmanstanding5117]

I like how it is. Killing it Bro!

[@aaron5222]

Man. Once i go up to Colorado for vacation i need to bring my brewing kettles for you to do some sanitary welds so I can upgrade my system

[@dxz3]

definitely make the exhaust flush!!

[@KcazP1]

Flush with the body !!

[@amberselectronics]

I bet it's going to be fine with no flex, the turbo is mounted straight to the tube frame too right? With all those mounts I think it'll just vibrate the frame and exhaust as one.

[@tonyross7376]

That looks sick. Love the build

[@lluciferl9276]

When I get my first car which should hopefully be a ‘01 Corvette yes it’s manual, I’d love to have you do my header and intake work

[@mtech1961]

Great workmanship but wont the banks have unequal lengths to the Hot side of the Turbo? Won't that compromise performance or are you going to eventually go twin turbo?

[@thermalnoise2976]

I would follow the contour of the fender. With maybe your custom labeled ring around it. But either way, nice job man.

[@jessemartinez4601]

I like how it is keep up the good work man very entertaining video

[@AlgorLangeaux]

Sticking out the side like a bauss... and just enough room for an MTig badge!

[@billbaggins9961]

Love your work, very clean and to think you're self taught on tig welding is amazing. I personally would do a clean flush cut although I'm not sure what the results would be on your fender paint! the car is clean looking as is. Hope it doesn't burn it at all.

[@tylerrobertst-rob1731]

Only downside of doing a single fender or bumper exit is that if you have enough flow it can push the car a little bit, especially if it's close to the wall. But she's looking good!!!
