exhaust i just build for my personal car
a few of you might know about my car, but for those that don't, i'm getting close to finishing this thing. i just finished the exhaust today and i'm starting to get a bit excited about it so i thought i'd share. having a lift sure makes doing this sorta thing a hell of a lot easier.














dude, aluminum hard line for fuel under the car is a bad idea.
i did that and a freaking rock kicked up and pinched it, causing the engine to die....took forever to diagnose it. its just too darn soft.

thank you for the input from your personal experience. i will now most definitely carry a spare soft line in the car for longer trips.

Looks great man... I never thought of doing the bottom of the fuel cell on an angle like that, the build I am doing is gonna give me a hard time on the sump being clear at the back of the tank, gotta keep that in mind when I get to that!
Haha I was gonna say an S2k..
But I sure didn't think the underside looked like I remembered the s2k. Nice build looks very well done. Good luck with it. Please post sound clips + Vids!

i use a v-block and an arbor press. they are only 3/8" round 304, so they bend pretty easy. 1/2" hangers i have to heat and bend.
It looks awesome! Love the 949s on the Hankooks. You'll love them, I do love my 949/hankook combo.

yeah, for the $, i think that wheel/tire combo is probably the best bang for the buck.
ground clearance isn't too bad at the muffler. the lowest point is the flex at the front, but i can still get a 2x4 under it.
here it is running, but untuned.

i had one here in the build section but it got locked when i got fed up with h-t and the whole "lock all my threads" problem i seemed to have had. that is also why i haven't posted my work here in the past couple years. a lot of my threads were getting locked for reasons unknown to me. perhaps people saw my threads as advertising, which is kinda funny because i only do fabrication for LOCAL people predominantly. i've only ever shipped a couple pieces to customers. needless to say, my business is headed in a different direction and i am focusing elsewhere.
don't worry though, you're not missing much as there was not really much to read. i'm more of a let my pictures do the talking guy. i get more wordy if someone asks something specific as i try to answer any question.
i also have a thread on a couple local forums, but they are mostly pictures too. you can also see all the pics on my facebook page. just search for Weir Technologies Inc.

All good, I'm friends or whatever with your FB page so I'll check them all out there. I wanted to see how you did the fuel cell and how you ran all of your hardlines and whatnot, just how I learn I guess haha.
Thanks man, and great work.
