As owner of a fabrication shop, those pics are plain embarrassing.

Hey guys, I'm going to start making tubular manifolds, 300$ each flux cored out of my garage, no refunds.

Are those welds or did a bird fly over and poop on the flex and piping?

WEEEEE!! this is the type of entertainment I usually have to head to the mkIV forums for...

Go start a thread titled: Should I get Tapp or Uni?

That should be a fun one as of late

But on a more serious note, I learned this lesson through a friend who bought a "full race header" for his spec v ser sentra for around 250$, that came with a free ceramic coating... the welds were marginally better than what was just posted above, and the "ceramic coating" was chipping off after 5 days. He has had it for about half a year and it is rusting all over the place. It didn't come with any of the needed hardware to install it, oh I think it came with one gasket... its sooo raspy and drones and leaks(may have fixed that) and looks horrible and is falling apart...

Even before that experience I have always been a fan of "you get what you pay for," not saying I'm always going to buy the most expensive product out there because I think the amount it costs is directly proportional to its quality, but I surely am not going to buy the cheapest product.

Good luck OP hope it all turns out well.

Seafoam, from the ocean??? I am so confused.

but... it is disappointing when a supplier of anything gets in a pissing contest about whether their products (fabricated or not) are any good. Especially when it is so easy to start a thread like this which will damage a reputation even more.

suck it up, learn from the experience and refund the guys money. you will get more business doing that than you will now

I have had some problems with companys in the past and not getting a refund. These people are great to call and have in your corner. Sometimes they can help, sometimes they cant. Good luck! Hope you get a refund, and to think I almost bought a manifold from these guys.

Your justification for using mild steel flanges is off. You are suppose to use mild steel flanges instead of stainless steel to avoid warping, not to save money. Which obviously didn't work in your case. Also manifolds are suppose to be bolted down from the inside working your way out, to let it "spread" outwards.

P.S. spend more time when you type, your posts read like a 3rd grader typed it.

He doesn't make those downpipes either, the illegal immigrants at Miami Muffler do

Just when I thought this thread was done...

Don't worry though Stu...you will promptly be laid off from your non paying job shortly after receiving your reward.

Just remember though Stu.....

Yeah you are a scammer, you are the equivalent of ss autochrome.

You will post pictures of that and send people out garbage.

AKA a light form of bait and switch, you are not selling what you are advertising.

Keep laughing it may hide the pain you of being a lying $hitbag, but it's pretty obvious what you are.

Are you retarded? Did you not think this stuff would come to light?

THis is what you send people, not what you advertise.

What a joke. That is crap, i can tell you that you did not use the same rig/setup you welded that other stuff with because I have spent enough time around real fabricators to be able to tell by looking even if I can nto explain that maybe you did not use the right gas, or even gas at all. Whatever, point is it is trash, and I have laid better welds than your "production" work in my garage with a flux core.

There sure are a lot of welding "experts" in here. Unless you have spent years perfecting your craft, please don't comment about "I can do better in my uncle's basement using a transformer with two leads". Looking a pics of stacked dimes on the internet tells you very little about the quality of a weld.

On another note, you should not need to resurface a flange after welding. If you make proper jigs and weld it correctly, your manifold should un-bolt from the fixture and be straight as an arrow.
