Thumbs up Pics of my polishing skillzzzz
I polished the cross over pipe in my "y" assembly.I am still working on the bottom section. It's kindof tricky because all of the bends. I'll finish it off tomorrow. I am open for buiseness if anybody needs something done.

That is becasue mine is he "efini" y pipe not the stock y pipe. The efini pipe is made out of metal and you can see that the turbo side now can be bolted down as opposed to clamping with couplings.

I think his work is awesome but he had nothing to do with this. Sorry I guess you thought maybe he would have the corner on the polishing market here on the forum forever?
Well I can't do chroming but I'm a polishing ****
So watch out 'cause here I come....

Yeah the y-pipe is the piece that actually splits off to each turbo from what I understand..... since it looks like a Y.

The part in the pic I call the cross over pipe. It's in the "y" pipe assembly which countains the actuall y pipe that comes off the turbos and the cross over pipe.

Prices are not exactly set in stone yet. If you send me a PM I'll give you a quote.

BTW thanks for all the compliments guys. Especially yours Teddy.
Do you have ICQ? I'd like to talk techniques with you if you would be up for it.
