Little write up on the evolution of my car - FirebirdPhil - 25-12-2019
Its inline on the 3" cat back where it joins the Y piece, sits nicely where the rear seats are.
I was going to tap into the OS Y pipe even made up a couple of reducers (3" to 2.5"), but as the cat back is 3" and there was a perfect place to put it, why waste the opportunity.
There are boost activated ones available I would have gone that way, if I had boost.

I bet your welding is not as good as what Stav has on his lol

I bet it is Moley.
This is a photo of one of the reducers I made up ready to install:

Welded on a lathe so it was easy to turn and keep it all straight, then finished off with emery to remove welding marks.

Phil I must say you did a good job there !!!!!! , but you should have posted it up to get it welded :kiltsmilie::biggrin:

Moley Well said Stav
Mine is better then whoever made the Y piece - thats good enough for me.
As an amateur who hasn't welded more them 10 times I think its very good especially as its stainless and someone else's kit that I had no idea how to set up the way I want. Then again welding is easy, its not as though its hard lol.
The wire feed dial was broken and was feeding so slowly.
