Maybe I'm not catching something, but why does he have flex pipes on the dump tubes? I dont see how any thing on that TT manifold is going to shift?
Looks good, but sure hope he has some well designed/effective braces to support that!

Maybe it has something to do with thermal expansion...since the dump tubes will be changing temperature alot more and differently then the manifold.

Re: (imthedude)
"The flex is there to help in the installation of the system. You try to get 4 points to line up. If it was possible to line everything up easily then there would be no flex sections. The street exhaust will have a flex section right after that collector. Also, i dont expect too much movement in the engine. It will have all poly mounts and i am going to cut the poly in half and make half of it metal. We thought about making flex sections in each downpipe but there was not enough room anyway."
