Part of my TMI order is here, Fedex is still trying to locate the seats/brackets lol. I'm very happy with TMI's work, looks clean but not total street rod.

For whatever reason, this wastegate pipe was a struggle. :shakehead: Finally got all the angles right, and can move onto something else.

Supernice!

What kind of flexjoints are you using?

A buddy has struggled with those and ended up going solid pipe, but it was on the crossover-pipe from driverside.

That's looking incredible.

On the exhaust pressure side I went with a double slip connector from Burns Stainless. On the downpipe and wastegate pipe I have the Vibrant ones, but made sure they didn't have any bends as set up, the inner liner can vibrate if bent. I didn't use a flex joint on my last build and by the time a few heat cycles had occurred I had to pry the pipe to line it up to the wastegate when assembling.

Welded and bent up some exhaust hangers. Rods came from Amazon, rod bender from Eastwood. Will drill the bracket holes on final assembly. Will have to custom fab the pipes over the axle, the Magnaflow kit won't clear the Roadster Shop chassis.

That's going to be loud when you put your foot into it. I dig it, lol :thumbsup:

I hope not lol. I almost went with the 2.5" exhaust but chickened out. The turbo tames the exhaust some. If not I see resonators in the future... :lol:
