One piece Exhaust...
 
Anyone here have an exhaust that goes from turbo to the catback and it's all one Piece? No flanges nothing? I was wandering if there were any benefits or drawbacks to doing it... I'm not planing on ever replacing it once i bolted it to my single and all the way back....

Any pics as well would be nice...

Thanks

My exhaust is being made next week. It will be a two piece.

IMHO, bad idea. If you had to do a clutch job, you'd need to pull the exhaust, and removing giant one-piece exhausts is a pain in the ass. Unless you have a lift and can get it WAY up in the air :).

I've worked on FC's that had muffler shop exhausts that were one piece, and they were a HUGE pain in the ass.

Having the exhaust in 3 pieces with bolts and nuts connecting each piece is the way to go. Easy to work on, not many failure points, etc.

the thing that bugs me is that i get leaks at the flanges between the hi-flow cat and dp... and i was thinking once all that is one piece and welded... there is nothing to worry about...

If you have leaks, you have fit problems most likely. Most leaks I've seen were from cheap parts or stuff not made well, and it didn't line up properly.

besides, why replace the whole system after the muffler rusts out

I think this is the closest you're going to get unless you go custom

That thing looks loud as balls. I would have to weld a magnaflow muffler in there :)
