Default Custom x-pipe


I decided to have a custom x-pipe made to go with my Tubi HJS cats. I’m very happy with the results. For those of us that are budget minded and have a quality shop you trust this may be a great option for you. Exhaust is 304 SS. Took 8 hours to make and install. I’m very happy with the sound and quality.

Looks like a quality build, congrats. What piping size did you use?

Wow awesome job! Back in my college days, i took welding class for three semesters and actually got really good at TIG, but that was 15 years ago so i lost everything. I was thinking about taking up welding again at my local vocational school just to do custom fab on my 991 Turbo S. Some of these parts (exhaust, roll bar) made of basic metal tubing with a little welding are absurdly priced. That X-pipe only requires 3 u-bends at $40 each and they're super easy to make, just a little time consuming. A test pipe would be the most difficult part since you would have to draw up and cut your own flange, but with the right tools it's actually not that diffuicult.

My wife said I HOPE SAM is a man and not short for Samantha. I just hope I can claim Sam on my taxes.
