Questions about cutout for aftermarket DP / stock exhaust

[kbeck59]

Mike... Saw the other thread.... Whether Paul gets it done or you source it through another place, when the jig is made, can I get it black thermal coated and configured to bolt flange to the ceramic PPE downpipes and weld to the stock exhaust (this would also make require pins for the factory hangers)... I appreciate that this will add cost, but I'd like to stay in theme.  TIA

Big Mac  , your best option would be to keep the cutout as is  especially  if you want them coated and have flanges welded were the stock exhaust is cut .

If welding is done on the  piping that is coated the coating will be toast ...

Thanks Kevin... I'm waiting on Mike's answer.

I'm sure things have progressed, it's been almost two weeks since that was posted.

FoMoCoSHO will be needing the prototype back soon, Paul at PPE is swamped... when I talked to him 2 weeks ago Mike (4DR) had put the construction of the Jig into other hands to get it done.

I'd say need is a harsh word.

I'm on no deadline and I'm not unhappy with the car in current form.

I sent it out fully aware that the process may take a while.

I'm flexible and I've learned to have patience when modding cars, which allegedly, is a virtue.

I would never want the quality sacrificed just to get it back in my hands quicker.

Thanks Sean...  :bow:  Very gracious of you... hopefully not too much longer.
