I was wondering if anyone here could possibly help my cousin out and weld his mugen twin loop exhaust. It was in an accident and kinked up. So it it had to be cut, so it could be re-shaped. From what we searched, TIG welding would probably be the best way to go. Or could we pick up a specific welding wire at Home Depot and do it ourselves?

If anyone here can do it or knows anyone who can, please let us know. Any shops in the Newport news or hampton area would be great. Thanks in advance.

it's going to take more than a TIG welder. you're going to need some exhaust dies in order to get that tube round again. MIG would be fine as long as you prep the areas and can weld a 'nice' bead.

 

i wouldn't even waste the time trying to "unkink" that i would just cut it out and weld in another bend or flexpipe or soemthing

 

 

I agree. I'd get a 45 degree from Burns Stainless in whatever material and whatever diameter fits your needs. Then just take the bend and exhaust to someone and have them run two welds. Probably cost you $50 total and it'll be done the right way.

 

p-m 150plus r-j is top noch at any welding and fabing

 

To clear the confusion, HJV11 is his username on tidewater racing forums, and 150Plus is his username here.

Definately send a PM his way, awesome work.
