coltboostin Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 That seems like a huge headache to still work under someone else. My plans for this company are more far-reaching than just manifolds, that's just the most sensible market to be in right now with the limited time I have available to work. When I finish school in the next couple months, I plan to delve back into custom welding/fabrication, parts sales, etc. That way, I don't have all my proverbial eggs in one basket, and I'm not reliant on just one facet of my business to put money in my pockets. I hear ya! Build it the way you want it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex L. Posted January 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Updates, updates, and more updates. Miscellaneous primary weld: Positioner (turn table) color experiment: Collector weaving: 2JZ-GE T4 twin scroll/twin 44mm exhaust manifold: From top to bottom: 2JZ-GE T4 twin scroll/twin 44mm, 2JZ-GTE Gen II T4 twin scroll/twin 44mm, Honda B-series T3 open scroll/single 44mm: Supra coming along: Injury/welding while injured showcase. The burn smelled really neat and doesn't hurt much. The other one is where I smashed my thumb in the lower beam of my bandsaw. Sometimes injuries happen, but there's no time to be a little bitch and not go back to work: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had people bring me cars from out of state before. If that's ever something you want to do, feel free to send me a PM and we can arrange it.

Geeesammy Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 So since you got lifts you going to start doing some Supra straight pipe stuff or what? Seems like I'm always seeing people posting places asking who sells kits. P.S. PLS become ProEFI dealer, none in Ohio yet I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
