Been fighting a low boost issue and I believe I found it.
Any tricks to welding this or just fill in the crack and hope for the best? It's cracked pretty much all the way around that runner and enters the collector.

Take it by Bab Bob's shop he can fix it. I almost thought that exhaust leak last night sounded alittle worse than a gasket leak.

Yeah he's closed. Looking it over better today, two runners have cracks.

I got a mig, just now at a high skill level. I'll see what I can do, that's what exhaust wrap is for anyways, cover up some pretty welds.

Yeah man, Stephon over at Automotive Solutions on college park took care of me. Can't beat some mid Saturday help to get me back up and rocking. Did pretty good on some crusty 8 year old headers.
Be going back together tonight, hope she's all sealed up. Might make a few hits tomorrow at Dorchester.

Might have to rig me up a go-pro shot on these bad boys Sunday, I bet they get warm. :razz:

She lives! My tune was completely jacked because I been messing with it so much lately... but in any case I got enough boost to share now if any N/A guys want to get a external line hooked up. :razz:
