Status: offline 		I am thinking of doing the front engine mod to my X-Factor 2 and was wondering if it would be bad for the engine (performance wise or just plain bad for it) to make a custom exhaust system out of Stainless Steel Tubing. Has anyone already done this, if so, pics would be great. Thanks

Status: offline 		Thanks for the info. I have access to a wire feed, but I'll have to look into welding SS. I know a couple welders that could handle this project, all I need to do is design the pipes. Thanks again.

Status: offline 		OK, I took a look at the websites, I found a couple different ones. That is way more complicated than the idea I had. I just wanted to run a couple lengths of SS Tubing down each side and make some cool looking dual pipes, but it looks as thoughit is not that easy. Now I gotta try and figure something different out.
