Ok, i went to home depot to pick up one of those pipe cutters. The kind you mount on a piece of pipe, tighten it down and turn it until it cuts through.. AlOT easier then doing it by hand.... BUt when i was at home depot all the had was 2 1/8 size was the biggest.. i need 2 1/4 minimum...

anyon know where to ge ta bigger one??

 

I remember seeing some in the JC whitney catalog.

 

All i can say is check some more home improvement places, and see is there are any plumbing supply stores in your area.

 

They have a couple different kinds at http://www.northerntool.com just type in pipe cutter in the search area they range from 9-20 bucks.

 

any plumbing store will have them..
also if you are flaring make sure u got all the burr off or it will leak like a sieve.

 

band saws work great too.

 

canadian tire..oh wait..thats here.

 

Del, I'm assuming you want to cut intercooler and exhaust pipes...you don't want a plumbing pipe cutter for that. You want an abrasive chop saw. For example: http://www.weldingmart.com/Qstore/p000558.htm Home depot and Menards have them too. Band saw works well too, but for quick easy rough cuts you can't be a 14" cut off saw.

 

YA, ID LOVVVE to have one of those.. i just dont want to spend 160 bucks to cut pipes ya know...

you can get a smaller chop saw from northern tool or harbor freight for about $30.. they only have 6" and 7" in that price range, but they will do fine for personal turbo related stuff!

 

Yeah, you can defeintly get a chop saw cheaper then the link I posted...that was just a quick and easy find when searching cut off saw on the net.

Think my dad paid like $50 or less for this from harbor freight. The accuracy of the angle scales on it are a joke, but it cuts.
