Gut-en-tag

Would it be easy to have it welded VERY-VERY well? Just for now? Cheaper & temporary till your forced-induction.

Seems like the best idea - Get the welder to warranty his work on paper.

NICE
A+


it must hold only for one month. no longer.
i dont think it will hold a long time if its welded......so what?
i look for a welder near me and go this way. (cheap)

p.s.
you have to say "Guten Tag" not "Gut-en-tag"...
and now......

"Auf Wiedersehen" and "Danke"

Just have it welded. The newly welded area will actually be stronger than the original metal so it should definately hold up.

one of my friends prelude's had the same thing happen and he welded it thinking he would just do that for the meantime and then get an aftermarket header... that was almost a year ago and he still has the welded one on
