Default Welded up All of my Piping, almost ready to BOOST!

Well i've been working on welding up my intercooler piping and downpipe for my new turbo set-up. i wanna make a point that i am a "self tought" welder... aka i watching the video that came with my welder and went to it! lol...


Started with this


And then went to town!





I tucked it up pretty nice...

Tight fit, but i had to have a 3"

The finished product

Next i tackled the IC piping: Cold side



IC piping: Hot side
Now this was a bit more complicated... it was a very tight fit w/ the internal gate, but i made it work. it took a few whitey bends, but i think i worked out out to be functional and not to restrictive!



Im thinking it's all gonna work out....


Let me Remind you im a New/Self tought welder. they might not be the cleanest, but they'll hold!

Grinding this the last thing you want to do to a weld, it will weaken the weld. Bad idea, those poop welds will hold. By the way what HP/PSI are you planning on running?
