Ok, so anyone following my project thread will know that I am going through a lot of fail with my exhaust at present.

Does anyone know what size/type of flange the gti6 uses at the start of the downpipe (connects to exhaust manifold)?

I am still having problems getting mine sorted. Its now gone to a different welder, but he runs his own place from home and doesnt have any disimilar metal welding rods.

Thinking its probably just easier to get a flange that can be welded to stainless steel using normal welding rods?

Advice appreciated Smile

How do they make exhausts in the first place? Surely an exhaust builder can get hold of them from somewhere?

Get a cheap pattern knackered Cat and cut the flange off?

You can weld stainless to mild with mild wire, but it is probably looked upon as a 'bodge' by the company that you are approaching.

    That would work, but for that price I think I could get Hayward and Scott to make me a full system Laugh

    I meant aftermarket exhaust makers.

    I should just get Jim or Phil to sort it really.

    there's only a few that do the decats, they'll be custom made SS flanges typically, often from pressed sheet or machined billet/plate.
