Those pullies look much better IMO. They definitely look like there was quite a bit more thought put into them.
As for the exhaust, those stainless MIG welds look great Kyle! We experimented with MIG'ing SS at work, and they never really came out that good. Lots of clean up was required. But yours look great. We were using Argon, but now it makes me think we should've tried trimix before calling it quits.
Nice work!
BTW, dual 3" will flow better than your single 4". A single 5" will out flow a dual 3.5" though.

I'll have to try it out for myself with some trimix. I bet the SS wire wasn't cheap either. What kind did you use?

Yeah, we were getting a lot of spatter, and it was in an area where the customer would've really noticed. Clean up time with MIG vs. just TIG'ing it was worse.

Clean up would have been super easy if I'd wanted to, just a quick hit with a wire wheel and the weld and area around it was shiny and smooth.

Probably a dumb question but i noticed on these new TVS blowers that the TBody flange is a 4 bolt style. I thought all the throttle Tbodies were 3 bolt....or does the TVS come with its own proprietary Tbody?
