2000 Civic SI: Proven Power 304SS 3" downpipe and dumptube
This customer recently changed turbo manifolds. The old downpipe was on his log manifold setup and was temp modified for the new exhaust manifold.
Old downpipe pics ... O yea !
WOW !
NEEDS MORE FILLER !!!
So to begin i needed to make a tight radius bend to clear the radiator here
tacked together
Confirmed there was plenty of room for ALL the bolts to fit easily
Then finish welded everything
Then added a small section and a bend to go under the pan
Then some more piping flex pipe and wideband o2 bung
After the flex i took a step back to check how close things were lining up.... looking good !
The car came in with a 3" exhaust that needed to be modified for the new downpipe so i removed the mid section and cut off the 3 bolt flange and rewelded a matching 2 bolt.
When finished we went ahead and heat wrapped the downpipe to cut down on underhood temps
After completing the downpipe we went on with dumptube. I cut up some bends and came up with this !
All complete with gate peeking through front ! Charge pipe/catch can fabrication coming soon ?????
Thanks for looking !

Awesome night doing the install and the fitment/quality is unsurpassed. Hope for both charge pipe and breather soon, but i have this weird feeling i will have a lightened chromoly flywheel and clutch job done before that;-P. Seriously tho, AWESOME job! thanks.
