r850glt Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Just buy your Downpipe from Jesse and save yourself the Hassle. I have seen the prototype & its very high quality, and has a good finish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StickThatClutch Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 I am going to make my own down pipe.Where are you guys getting your turbine flanges from? I doubt you are all making your own.←I had a hard time finding these when I tried to convert an old BSR down pipe to fit my car. Unfortunately, not much help was found online. One source that I had some luck with but never ended up ordering from was ATP Turbo. www.atpturbo.comMight want to shoot them an email and see if they can hook you up.

StickThatClutch Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Also Road Race around my parts has flanges. You can email them to confirm dimensions.http://www.roadraceengineering.com/flangesandgaskets.htmby the way, the guy knows where to buy a down pipe. He wants to make his own so why is everyone trying to sell him stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slater Posted May 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 oh yeah, i'm sure they're just gonna let you in on that.... ←Ummm, head or turbine flanges aren't exactly patented secrets - you can all the head flanges for Mitsus, Toyotas, Hondas, Nissans, and domestics out the butt, as well as turbine flanges for almost every Garrett, IHI, KKK, Holeset, and MHI turbo from hundreds of websites.It's just the Volvo guys that all seem to be so protective and secretive about everything. It's getting old, especially when all I wanted one for was to make myself a down pipe.That's OK. I'll tell you what, I'm going to CAD one up and make a pile to sell to anyone like me that wants to make their own down pipe. Sound good? I sure hope so.Anyone that wants one, reply to this thread and I'll add you to a list. I'm starting with 16T straight flanges.- Slater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
