Too hot, too cold, dipped tungsten, poor shielding, contamination. You could use those pictures to teach a class on how NOT to weld. Midship don't you TIG? Help the guy out, man.

Jesus christ. WTF did they use to cut the injector hole, a dull spoon? I'd tell your friend to take his stuff and GTFO while there's still something left to try and salvage.

'' My friend '' so I don't know. I told him my self the welds aren't good.

He's doing a project just like my car Nissan with a Nissan VH45DE v8 turbo, except it's for a G35 .

Im gonna speak from some experience w/ extruded tubing. In most all cases they use a lubricant in the extrusion process which typically gets embedded into the material, if the surface isn't properly cleaned well it will weld like **** as pictured above. Have your buddy clean the material and remove any contaminants and give it another try.
