I would like to double down on a 2.5” collector exit feeding directly to a high flow cat. That’s the one thing I would change on my 3.7L build for my 996.

@BIGKAT_83 Bob, it's from SPD, a company near me in Nor Cal. But yes, it's B-uti-FULL!

A bit more progress:
- 2.25"-to-2.5" transition tacked on to collector. It'll get an O2 sensor just after the rear mount of the engine cradle
- two of the tubes final welded with the main weld seam disappeared

This is just a mock up (the collector is just set on, not tacked) to see how things are fitting after welding. I'm sure some minor tweaking will be needed ahead of being "done".

All main weld seams sanded. Hopefully, the other side will go much more quickly - this took a lot longer than I'd expected. You'd think I'd have learned by now... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Now to work out a finish. I'm considering white, as a nod to Ferrari's race cars. That or the same finish as my LS car's exhaust. That "titanium" cerakote tone would look pretty killer with the red plenum... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

I enjoy watching the process. But, you know....in the back of my mind, I am wondering if Chris is now reimagining the LS headers....... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

@Cairo94507 Michael - You know me too well! On the LS car, it's not the headers. But I am likely updating the intake and the exhaust from the headers back. I have what I think is a very cool design that I'd like to try out. Watch for an update on the LS thread.

Wholly ^&*^%@!!!!!

I can't imagine how you can get into the junction of the 4 pipes to weld it all up! A tight fit. Incredible work Chris. WOW.

Hope to see it first hand this weekend if I can talk my way onto "the set". Perhaps the video production team will take the weekend off.
