Make sure you find someone that can weld titanium if you cut the pipe.

I've got a ti pipe in the garage I'm going to cut & attempt to weld this weekend. Shifter cart is coming along nicely and needs a bad ass pipe to compensate for the turbo.

Why would I need to weld it? Everything rivets together on the can. The midpipe is stainless if thats what you were talking about

Thanks. You're gonna have a hard time welding titanium. The weld has to be sheilded from oxygen and you have to use a titanium rod. You do have a TIG welder right?

Yea, have a tig, arc, and plasma. Didn't know I needed a ti rod. I've been meaning to look up the specifics.... I've only worker with steel; fairly new to welding.
