DIY downpipe question.

[BoBa524]

Can someone suggest where i should get the piping needed to fab your own downpipe? I think 2.5" piping will be fine. Also will need a flex pipe and an o2 bung. thank you

Piping = Top End Performance, they have some decent prices, plus you don't have to buy chromed, which will save you cash and allow you to paint it. Bung = JGS Tools, they just started offering them. Flex Pipe = NAPA, but I am not entirely sure why you would want to use one, just something else to fail if you have a lowered car.

you can get all of those parts from summitracing.com

jgstools has been selling the bung for a long time.

I didn't know JGS had them for a while, are they cheaper at summit?

[volfan98]

they're $5 at summit. does summit sell the T3 discharge flange? I bought the O2 bung and mandrel bends from summit, and a 5-bolt flange from atpturbo.

[crzycav86]

I don't know. I got my flanges from road race engineering.

[Chezedik]

How much for the 5 bolt flange?

[BoBa524]

wow thanks guys found everything i need

Jegs.com too for those who need U-bends, insulation etc.

I went to a local exaust shop and in the back where the dumpster is you can just rummage through there and get all the mandrel bent pipe you want. I eneded up getting some 3" stainless mandrel bends. It's not pretty but for free you cant complain.

Not to sound like an idiot but you can use normal exhaust tubing for the dp? what about directly off the turbo?

Make sure you use the flex pipe, so you don't end up with a cracked manifold.
