Alex L. Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 Here's a quick sampling of some of the recent welding and fabrication projects that have been completed here at BP Autosports. 280ZX pie-cut transition elbow: http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/531382_417257504979371_222547172_n.jpg 3" 304SS SC300 downpipe: http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/560955_417257544979367_2135378745_n.jpg http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/564022_417257558312699_1883292934_n.jpg http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/319305_417257584979363_330208111_n.jpg 3" RX-7 charge pipe: http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/406063_417257604979361_786596318_n.jpg 3" V-banded aluminum Supra charge pipe.

The pipe has plenty of ground clearance and utilizes smooth transitions and long-radius bends to be as efficient as possible. Not pictured is the TiAL 50mm flange and valve: http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/529612_417257638312691_457779365_n.jpg We are a fully-equipped welding and fabrication shop with both TIG and MIG welders on the premises.

Mojoe Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 (edited) Pic 3 and 5 were for my car. A little more about the work done. I was referred to Alex because I wanted the piece made with short notice and needed it back ASAP. I brought him the old set up and lengths of the new piping, but it all needed cut to the right angle and length's. From there I "told" him what I was looking for. I had no way of giving him exacts. I just don't have that knowledge for welding. While I talked to him, he was very detailed and focused on getting the info exactly how I wanted it. The bung welded on the pipe, I brought him a tube of the raw metal and made a line with a sharpie with how thin I was hoping to have it on the pipe. He also did this for the elbow the pipe was fitting up to. I was going to be having the the tapping done in the garage where the car is, so it was just small things that I wanted exactly the way I was "hoping". And did I mention I needed it back ASAP!! How's later that night work for you? I brought him parts and left him with an idea. 10pm that night he delivered, just worked out that he was near by where I was that night, exactly what we needed. Alex was awesome to work with and exceeded my demanding hopes. Thanks Alex. The car will be going into testing soon, but this pipe is something we have zero worries about. Click the link below to see the final fit and finish. In the second pic you can see the bung welded on the elbow. The cuppler needs to be a tad longer, the pipe fitment is perfect to the elbow. There's also a bung welded on the IC pipe he put on. Edited July 5, 2012 by Mojoe Add pic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WheelSpin Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 While doing a swap for a buddies civic the shift cable bracket managed to get a chunk ripped off. Took it to Alex today and within 20 minutes he had it cleaned up and was laying a bead on it, I don't think I could of laid a better bead either. Awesome guy and awesome service!

SiColin Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Nice work. Do you leave the pipes raw or do you put a coat of paint on them? If raw how well does that hold up from daily driving? I'll prolly be contacting you soon to get a quote on getting all new intercooler piping when I upgrade my current IC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This exhaust is constructed primarily of pie cuts and tucks tight to the body for optimum ground clearance without causing any unneeded NVH (noise, vibration, or harshness). The system utilizes long-radius bends for efficient exhaust flow and is entirely TIG welded in house. BP Autosports is your custom exhaust headquarters.
