Default Aluminium welders where to find 1 ?

Seen this on ebay
Subaru impreza turbo reverse inlet manifold on eBay, also Engine Tuning Parts, Performance Tuning Parts, Car Tuning Styling, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 28-Jan-08 01:35:10 GMT)

I have a spare inlet manifold and im assuming this is done to shorten the returm pipe from a fmic
so to this end its a mod I want but need to find somewhere to do the welding

Any body any ideas of where in N.I ?

If you have the bits, marked out for location, I can do it in work mate. How soon do you need it done? Let me know when you have all the bits.

that looks like a good manifold, most of the reverse 1's ive seen r black & plasticy looking. That would look the dogs nuts!

I'm assuming you will get reduced lag with a reverse manifold

This isnt a reverse manifold but a manifold reversed.
