Default True Skillz

Well my shitty SSAC manifold broke(go fiqure), and I was short on cash. So I went out and bought some 90 degree fittings and 2 tee fittings, then hacked up the old ssac manifold for the flanges. And this is what I got. I had to use a thin piece of tailpipe section for the part from the log to the turbo flange, but I kept blowing through it, so thats why it looks so shitty, that and I suck at welding. Doubt this one will crack though.

very creative. one of the most important things in fabrication is being able to make things work.. all of the other things come with time
