Default 90 degree to FE conversion ??

What is need to convert a 90 degree turbo to a FE ??

Can i just cut the 90 Degree bit off and weld on a new straight piece ??

Will the new weld take the heat from a hot turbo without coming back off ????


Any one got a link or pics of it being done ???

I've got a converted comp housing, and its just as you described.
I haven't fitted it yet, but I'm due to take off an un-converted one, and have a mate copy the converted one. I can take a pic in the next couple of days.

Cheers matey, i was just concerned the weld would not hold up under the heat the turbo generated but obviously this is how it is done
