Default 3" Down pipe Problem.

Ok guys,

i need to know where i can buy a 3" exhaust donut, not a donut gasket, but a 3" peice of pipe tHAT IS MANDRELLY BENT into a perfect circle,(donut)

i have seen them before, but now i cant find them anywhere on the net.


I need one of these to complete my 3" DP... i need a really tight radius bend right off of the turbine housing.

Nobody on here has bought or used a 3" donut??

How else are you making DP's?? i have alreay tried a U bend with a 5-6" radius and it hangs a little lower than my oil pan!!!!!

http://www.roadraceengineering.com has them. They also have tight radius u bends. You should be able to get a normal u bend to work though. Do you have any pictures of what your working with?

Your welcome. Good luck with it. Before you buy though check the radious. I have some very tight 3" ubends from them. If it was a donut it would be smaller than a plate.

Yeah i am going to buy the 4" radius U bend, i have a 6" now and that is what is killing me, i didnt think 6" would be to much but i guess it is,, i am going to buy the U or the Donut with the 3" radius, then i know the bend will be nice and tight, but the donut is $60 and the U bend is $35 so there is a price difference, ol' well

Thanks again
Brian
