That thing, among others. To me, this was the easiest part to weld and we came up short. So what's going on behind the scenes. Also see how it's all super smooth? That's from running over an existing weld, which isn't ideal.
not shitting on this guys parts. Just helping others. A back handed learning experience.
I just looked at the pics again..it looks like 2 different people worked on it. Some looks really good, then other sports are less than.
Yes completely true. The welding isnt the nicest one. Ive made a closeup and inspected and there is no hole. Its just not looking good. Its all made out of 3mm thick tubing.
But im still happy how it all turned out.
oh in btw. Its equal length and tested with flow simulation. This was the shortest path of tubing i could make for this twinscroll design
Here are some extra pics, Originally it was design to have milled collectors. Im running a MR-2 powersteering pump, and hope it still clears to steering axle to the steering wheel or how is it called.
And i friend of mine asked if he could have it 3D printed at school. Wich i didnt have a problem with
I :heart: machined aluminum look, but upper management does not. Many people think our parts are cast because of the tumble process we perform. Oh well.
I did these a while ago but never posted them here. As things go, this CAM software doesn't work with the ever progressing solidworks so i can't do fun stuff like this as easily. Damn software licenses.
That was considered at one point. Then life happened; I only drove it once this past summer. Miata is currently underneath 3 feet of patio cushions and a grand wagoneer hood. The car will stay at 98% done for as long as I own it.
