thanks

:X another cracked one

 

soflo did u have a cracked one also and how did u get it fixed?

 

were you using spring bolts on your setup krazyaziantc?

 

there are sprint bolts connected from the downpipe too the spipe. if thats what ur talking about then yes

 

see i told everyone it doesnt have to do with spring bolts cuz i had spring bolts on my first dezod mani and it still cracked. Go to a local exhaust shop and they can weld it up for you, its pretty cheap to.

 

yes sir, i believe there is another set at the end of the spipe and the beginning of the midpipe before your muffler. If you are using those as well, you might want to see if Paul might warranty the manifold. The worse he could say is no, so why not right?

 

krazy asian how long ago did u get the kit? if its been less than a year id give it a shot to call paul

 

i have had the kit for over a year and i was not the original owner i bought it off somone here that only had it for 500 miles before he went into the service. i am talkign too paul at the moment.

soflotc i talked to a muffler shop around my area and they said that they could weld it but since its stainless steel they do not know how long it will hold since they only have welding rods with 75% argon not 100%argon

did you hit up speedway in upland? they usually do good work and are fairly priced. look for a place called atd components in upland, if they dont weld it themselves they will show you someone who will.

good luck. i hope you get it figured out.

what part of upland are you from? i used to live right above 13th on mtn. i havent seen any other turbo tcs around

 

yea i called speedway already and they were the once that told me that they could do it but they dont know how much it would last. i live on 24th and mountain

 

What did you ever do to fix the problem? My friend chad was having a issue with his didint know if you ever found out what caused it and how to fix it?!

 

if its a bad weld, some good prepping and rewelding should fix it no? like good as new.. unless its some other stress that cause fatigue on the metal
