I could have migged it, but the whole point of the exercise was to learn tig welding.

Well done. Glad someone is having a go.

I finally finished the pipework and got it fitted.





Its 200 cell cats, x pipe and 2x 2.5 pipes to the exit.
I think ill probably need a muffler of some sort for trackdays.

Both sensors should be 45 degrees above horizontals to minimise moisture or fuel getting on them.

But the right one is open to being torn off on the first hump.

Thanks for all the positive comments internet experts.

Yea one lambda points down slightly,but the bottom of the cat is lower,as is the gearbox mount.

You really do want to move them. They will fail prematurely at that angle.

Otherwise lovely job.

The originals were at 90 deg., But yea, the one on the right of the pic points down a bit.

I`ve had a full system built by Stainless creations Falkirk and recently went back for new Cats.
Check out their facebook and listen to the video.
I think it sounds OK.
